Yes, this has bitten many users over the years. Updated doc along your suggestion:

Does this look any better?
Yes, thanks! I just have two nitpicks: 1) line 1076: I think the following: "sequenced index iterator's value_type is <i>constant</i>" is a little more clear. IMO the previous wording gave the impression that only const_iteratorS are available. 2) I'm kind of leery about picking out sequenced_index for special treatment since the same thing also applies to all other indices, so why isn't the same thing repeated for them also?
