for instance, the input cells (two missing cells, each followed by a cell with an ss:Index)…

1,2,3,4,5,6,,8,,10,11,12

will result in output cells with indices…

1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10,10,11

i haven’t tested fully, but in practice i think the output index count is one too low for each one or more contiguous cells with an ss:Index attribute

i just wish my xsl skills were sufficient to fix it!
