Sometimes it's just faster to throw away the existing version and create anew from the 'generate from files' option.
When it gets that bad, I'm generally in Sigil fixing things and use it to generate the TOC. Then I discover that they didn't use heading tags for the chapter headings.

Speaking only for myself, I'd be perfectly happy with an auto-generated entry of 'Untitled' (or the filename) for any file which doesn't contain any text. It can easily be edited later and it's faster to manually delete unwanted entries afterwards than to have to search for possible 'no-text files' which have been auto excluded.
Probably not that bad an idea. Especially as you can already edit the generated text. But, there is already a create TOC from files option. That seems to use the first heading. I don't know whether these would conflict.

What, actually use our ereaders for what they were designed for?
