On cursors, you can create a single index that does indeed get destroyed along with the cursor, but in order to add more indexes, you have to specify the file where you want to store them and that file does not get erased automatically. I don't recall there having been any change to that behavior, but I'm unable to test it here.

If you use the TAG clause - usually the recommended approach - all indices are stored in a single file. For instance, if your file is called client.dbf, all indices are stored in the file client.cdx, and referenced by tag name. In the case of a cursor, the CDX file is temporary; when the cursor is closed, both the DBF and the CDX files are automatically killed.

You can, indeed, also create separate index files. I am not sure whether these are killed together with the cursor, since I would probably never use them with a cursor.
