An index is bound to something, in most cases the next node (often a
character) ... just try to imagine what happens when it it not bound:
text
<index entry node>
text
Where do you expect a page break? And how robust can that be
implemented? Normally you woudl expect the index to be bound to the
second text (think of broken lines/words). So .. the index commands
tries to bind to the following text.
\showstruts
\index{x}\strut
