Description
The [section index on ListViews](http://docs.appcelerator.com/platform/latest/#!/api/Titanium.UI.ListView-property-sectionIndexTitles) that allows for fast scrolling of lists and an alphabetical index to the list sections is only enabled for iOS.
The component [exists](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/SectionIndexer.html) for native Android applications.
Have you considered using AlphabetIndexer in listview? [Listview with AlphabetIndexer and cursoradapter on Android](http://www.rogcg.com/blog/2013/02/10/Implementing-a-ListView-with-AlphabetIndexer-and-CursorAdapter-on-Android)
Is that supposed to be a suggestion for a workaround or for a possible component to use when implementing this feature in Android? If it's intended to be a workaround, it doesn't look like AlphabetIndexer is supported by Titanium either.
