chunking only the last section in each chapter

Hi,
The stylesheets rely on ids being unique within a document. 
I 
would expect to get strange results when processing a
document 
with duplicate ids.

In any case, I didn't mean to just use manual chunking.  I
meant 
you could customize the stylesheet that generates the manual
toc 
to generate a toc that has your last section identified as a

chunk, using an XPath selector.  But I doubt it would work
if IDs 
are not unique.
