Description Stefan Fritsch 2017-02-09 19:20:01 UTC 
If you have something like

  IndexOptions FancyIndexing
  IndexOptions +SuppressDescription

the second line is ignored.

The reason seems to be that incremented_opts/decremented_opts are only added/removed to opts if the config is merged into another config. But the global server config is never merged into something else.
Comment 1 Stefan Fritsch 2017-02-09 19:23:33 UTC 
As a work-around,

  IndexOptions FancyIndexing
  IndexOptions SuppressDescription

works. Though if the config is spread through many config files, it may be non-obvious that the lines are in the same context (global server config).
