It's thrown around through some of the links Rob mentioned, but it's true and notorious issue with indexing in MySQL. Furthermore, indexes must be in left-right ordering, if there's a multi-column index. Things I suppose are trying to improve a bit, but the rule is typically to create specific indexes for every major type of query.
