That's a fair point.  It's sort of hard to refer back from the acronym list
though since we don't have a single Access Method section but instead one for
Indexes and one for Relations.  In the attached diff I propose that we add a
glossary entry for Access Method (suggested better wording much appreciated)
which the acronym can refer to.  Being such a core concept it doesn't seem like
a bad idea to explain it.
