I cannot see Hazel as having a hand in writing any portion of PF, whether foreword, poem, commentary or index. And I cannot believe, as some have said, that John Shade wrote the index.

Dear Mr Brown,

I think that Nabokov himself claimed that Shade wrote the index. Since it is clearly the work of Kinbote, I interpret this as a hint that Kinbote and Shade are the same person.
