I did a quick check by adding id tags to all 700-or-so <indexterm>s in
func.sgml (don't get excited, it was a perl one-liner that just added
random id strings).  The runtime difference for building the HTML docs
seems to be under 1%, and negligible for PDF output.  So it looks like
we don't have to worry about scalability of tagging all the functions.
