\startappendices
   \completeindex
\stopappendices

or

\startbackmatter
   \completeindex
\stopbackmatter

or

\titel{Index}

\placeregister[index]

only \chapter etc end up in tocs, and their numbers turn on and off 
depending on the sectionblock (frontmatter, maintext, appendices, 
backmatter); you can define a sectionhead yourself, turn off the number and 
add the associated list to the toc (is in manual)

put a \vbox around it -> #1#2{\vbox{...}}

style=\ss
textstyle=\bfa
numberstyle=\bfc

if i'm right david antos made czech sorting rules, but i'm not sure if 
everything is already in the current context (i know i should know -) i 
shifted around so many mails and code that i have to have a close look
