actually, _before_ I started to set root.filename,
the TOC was already named on disk impnotes-top.html,
but it was referred to from the "<link>" and the navigation footer
as "index.html".

yes, now that I set root.filename, everything is fine,
EXCEPT that I still have to give an ID to the top-level <book> element.
if I don't I get a gensym ID in both impnotes-top.html in the chunked
version and impnotes.html in the single-file version.

This is why I still think that:

>> use.id.as.filename=1 should also make root.filename
>> default to the ID of the root element (<book> in my case).
