[issue10299] Add index with links section for built-in functions

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo <merwok at netwok.org> added the comment:

+1 on the general idea.  I applied the patch and built the documentation to see what the output looks like: The hotlinks are here and work, that’s cool, but I think the table wastes space.  You could use five columns without damaging usability (that is, summoning the hateful horizontal scrollbar), even in 800×600 with an uncollapsed sidebar.

Alternative ideas like using a special unordered list with automatic CSS 3 flowing or replacing the manual table with a new Sphinx directive would take a lot of time, so consider I’m +1 on whatever you decide best.
