some way to automatically generate a link in the index page for each page in the section

Perhaps also an option to make a table based on the leading digit in the position: section in the navigation header, to split the index into a table. For example, 0 > Misc. Ingredients and Blocks, 1 > Network Infrastructure, 2 > Devices, 3 > Machines, 4 > Tools

perhaps for the multi-section one it should be separated by level 2 headings and not a table

it turns out we already have this, "<CategoryIndex category="Category 1" />"

We still should do the <childpages /> tag :-P
