I will rename --index to --staged to avoid this. It is already used as synonym for --cached in git-diff. I will also add --staged as synonym to "git rm" so that "git status" can consistently advise "git <verb> --staged" where verb is either restore or rm.

Since option rename is a lot of work. If you think this is not a good move, raise it now, even if it's just "I don't like it, no reasons".
