Help with using getBlockIndex

Without the root id the block is looked for at the top-level1. Something like this seems to work:

useSelect(select => {
    const editor = select('core/block-editor')
    const rootId = editor.getBlockRootClientId(blockId)
    return editor.getBlockIndex(blockId, rootId)
}, [blockId])
