What is your suggestion for fixing the
            false hits?

      I think it’s useful. Let’s fix the
          false hits problem so it works. I use this feature all the
          time.

          

          Thanks and best regards,

         As we start working on DITA 1.3 documentation, we
            need to consider whether to include the Contains and
            "Contains by" tables in the Language Reference topics.

             

             Pro = Useful information

             Con = Makes it impossible to search the spec and find
            information about a specific element, since there are so
            many false hits. For example, if you search the PDF version
            for indexterm, you get over 130 false hits before you land
            on the actual topic.
