Dickson’s History of the Theory of Numbers has two non-overlapping indices: an 
Author Index and a Subject Index. Having used that book — and referred to both 
indices — literally thousands of times in my life, I can honestly say that if 
they were in a single index, differentiated only by fonts, it would have been a 
far more frustrating experience.

Just some more data for the discussion.  :)
