Personally, I would be happier if a document was always chunked at sect1
level so the user always knows how a document will be chunked without
having to know anything about how the document was marked-up.

A chapter or part chunk would contain a table of contents and some
introductory text.  Things would look odd for documents that had a
chapter without any introductory text (so only a table of contents was
generated) but I don't like those documents anyway :)
