We had a few cases of editors doing sweeping changes without 
understanding anything at all about the subject matter.  For example, 
there was one case of all instances of "Python" being changed to 
"wxPython", or maybe it was the other way around...  The index was made 
by an employee of the publisher and we were not given much of an 
opportunity to give feedback on it.
