index defined as IMPLIED to avoid length oid, but nothing happens :-(

Hello to all,
 
I try to avoid the length subidentifier in net-snmp tables. I was adviced to define the table index as IMPLIED OBJECT IDENTIFIER. To test this tip, I changed the netSnmpIETFWGTable from the NET-SNMP-EXAMPLES-MIB as follows
NET-SNMP-EXAMPLES-MIB extract:
>>
netSnmpIETFWGEntry OBJECT-TYPE    SYNTAX      NetSnmpIETFWGEntry    MAX-ACCESS  not-accessible    STATUS      current    DESCRIPTION "A row describing a given working group"    INDEX   { IMPLIED nsIETFWGName }    ::= {netSnmpIETFWGTable 1 }
<<
I left the rest of the MIB file unchanged.
 
After creating the c-file   - mib2c -c mib2c.create-dataset.conf netSnmpIETFWGTable and compiling the subagent, I made the snmpset like shown in the tutorial
%snmpset localhost .1.3.6.1.4.1.8072.2.2.1.1.2.\"sming\" s "David" 
the result was:
NET-SNMP-MIB::netSnmp.2.2.1.1.2.5.115.109.105.110.103 = STRING: "David"
 
I have expected that the length subidentifier "5" would have been disappeared, but it didn´t. What have I done wrong?
 
Thank for advice.
Torben
