Well, I guess Norm could best answer this since he wrote it.
But I suspect that it was not the intended purpose of Website.
You can link to HTML documents generated by chunk.xsl
from the website layout.xml file, so you could build your
big documents outside of website and just point to them.

Perhaps you would like to use the tabular interface (the
collapsible table of contents) for a big DocBook document.
That would be a different style of rendering the DocBook
table of contents for chunked output.  That would be a
nice option for chunk.xsl, outside of Website, IMHO.
