Feature request: using _index.md instead of empty pages

[matthijsthoolen]

Hello,

I am using HUGO for generating a documentation site for markdown files. We are making extensive use of _index.md files for the 'index-page' of a directory.

Would it be possible to use these _index.md pages instead of creating an empty file for each directory? This would make it easier to fill in empty spaces and still get the requested directory structure. Thanks!

Example directory structure:

docs
Development
_index.md
docker.md

On confluence I would like to have a Development page with the content of _index.md and a Docker page for docker.md. Currently when I upload this structure it's complaining about double pages because I have the Title for _index.md set to Development

I think the indentation in your example might be broken. I'm assuming both _index.md and docker.md are inside Development?
