I don't maintain ndarray subclasses (I prefer composition), but I don't think it's too difficult to require implementing vindex and oindex properties from scratch.

Side note: I would prefer the more verbose "legacy_index" to "lindex". We really want to discourage this one, and two new abbreviations are bad enough.
