This is going to get tough, I guess ;)

Tpoics would not be good for those working on implementing news sites,
help systems,  or Banner Advertising Systems for example (or a
Portal-Based KnowledgeKit). Seems to me it shouldn't be a common type of
word. Maybe something like:

Key_Words
Index_Topics
Index_Strings

may be best, since most people would tend to use single words, like
'Topics' as opposed to 'Key_Topics'.
