More to the point, ZeeRex _does_ include the abstract index names!
See
http://explain.z3950.org/dtd/refguide.html#6.1.6.3
Also useful is the sample record at
http://explain.z3950.org/samples/f-1.5.xml
which contains the following snippet (edited for brevity):
<indexInfo>
<index search="true" scan="true" sort="true">
<title primary="true" lang="en">Artist Name (Exact)</title>
<map>
<name>xartist</name>
</map>
</index>
</indexInfo>
Which I think gives you what you need for SRW?
