beside the unsigned the json output in all other actions use "index"
as far as I notice.
the action name, e.g. "police", being printed under "kind" also to
match the other actions.
So I wanted the json output for police to match with same keys as
the other actions. at least the keys "kind" and "index" which all
have and not each action use different key.
