That helps! But in any case, it looks like the problems are actually several (also the one of the precise order of the words in the index), and I think the 'fastest' solution for now is that I just compile the index (only 4 pages), make a separate component file and rearrange the contents by copy-and-paste. Not the most elegant of solutions, but it works. :-)

In IV one can do something such as this:
% Registers (Indices)
\defineregister[TIB]
\setupregister[TIB][indicator=yes,compress=yes]
and then in the body:
\TIB[don du gner ba]{don du gñer ba : patthanā : wish}don du gñer ba'i phyir rdzogs par byed do
\TIB[non mons]{ñon moṅs : kilesa : defilements}ñon moṅs pa śin tu che ba yin-no
