Custom Taxonomy JSON Output List not Generated

[panbanda]

A discussion on the forums has led to this issue. I have a repo that I have created which displays this error. The issue is that I have a static JSON API outputting the various contents but the custom taxonomy (named "classifications") is not generating an /en/classifications/index.json file. It is, however, generating proper /en/classifications/[term]/index.json files.

I have tried adding under [outputs] both taxonomy = ["JSON"] and taxonomyTerm = ["JSON"] with no avail. The only way I was able to get this to work was to create a custom outputType and manually create the index file (you can see this in the master branch). There is also another way to create the content/classifications/_index.md file but I am trying to avoid this because it feels like a bug and I'd have to create it for each language that exists as well. Instead, the file should automatically use the _default/list.json to generate a list page for available classifications.
