Yea I agree all the section names should be like your list.  Some of
them are already I think.

Agreed.

Index terms are something separate.  Many terms are already there in
both expanded and acronym form (possibly with a <see> marker).  The
index terms may still need cleaning up, but that isn't a replacement
for expanding section titles.  There is space pressure to keep the
index entries concise and so acronyms aren't as frowned upon in an
index, I think.  Four words like 'Network File System Server' is
pushing the space limitation for two column index output in a book --
especially if you then have secondary index terms beneath it.

Please don't make this kind of commit until I do the split so that my
patch will still apply cleanly.
