I have a customer that uses a publisher that has truly weird requirements. The weirdness is that the locaters are not page numbers but paragraph numbers. And some paragraph numbers start with the prefix 'BO' and others with the chapter number. so a correct sequence would be BO.15 3.2
A finished sequence would be
goddess @@ BO.15 3.2 3.5
The sort order has to be letter by letter, as defined in the Chicago Manual of Style.
Can Context sort and summarize these locaters?
You can use the "BO.15 3.2 3.5" as subentry and it will probably be sorted all right; you can then disable page numbers. This kind of indexing happens in critical editions.
