Would you agree with RJ's frequent declarations that Asmodean's killer should be obvious to readers after reading The Fires of Heaven?
Do not read the Glossary at all until you have finished the book. One entry alone spoils not only the long-anticipated murder question, but gives away a huge plot development in ToM. Thankfully, I didn't read it until I had skipped around a bit and had already read the relevant scenes (which some might view as being awesome).
The entry about Slayer (or Luc/Isam)!
But the important number is three.
Picture evidence in the link below (it's autographed to me), but I'm not going to say anything of a spoilerish nature until November 2nd, when my review will go live on The OF Blog. I will post a mirror here that morning, though.
I think a comment I made in the linked post will have some very eager for the next 17 days to pass quickly ' />

I'd be interested in this question as well, once you've finished. *NM*

Is this in reference to Brandon's 'small unnoticed detail' from books 4-6?

Ironically Sanderson's signature looks like he tried to cross out his own name from the title page *NM*

Certainly...

Or it might be that the glossary reveals that the murderer him/herself gets done over in ToM.
