OnDemand doesn't like to have indexes defined in the Application Group without a corresponding value appearing in the reports it processes.  It seems common in the Filenet world to assign a report to a Document Class that has indexes configured that simply don't exist anywhere in the report.  If you want to do this right, you'll want to look into your index usage.  Not just which fields you're populating most often, but also which fields your end users are searching on.  Eliminating unused fields from Application Group definitions will streamline indexing, reduce storage costs, and reduce complaints from end users at the end of the day.
