Does Writer have the ability to number the tables and illustrations in the document (as in, Figure 1.2, Table 2.4, etc), where the first number is the chapter (or chapter-section, or the like) and then use those numbers in the Index of Tables and Index of Illustrations?

Apparently so.

o  Go to Tools | Options.. | OpenOffice.org Writer | AutoCaption.
o  Tick and select the relevant object type(s).
o  Under "Caption order" select "Category first".
o  Under Caption | Category, select the appropriate text.
o The important bit: under "Numbering captions by chapter", select 1 (or as appropriate).

You also need to set up chapter numbering at Tools | Outline Numbering... | Numbering, of course.

I trust this helps.
