Not being given a choice I still have no use for the index and would as soon get rid of it. I've occasionally while trying to jump to a page of my home screen had the kindle start to do a search for "10" instead of going to page 10. There doesn't seem a way to say stop I don't want to search that. You just have to wait. Annoying.
It does that if there isn't a page 10.

Forcing a restart with the power switch can be faster than waiting for the search to complete.

The kindle developers subforum may have a hack for noindexing
