I haven't looked at the code, but there appear to be two different id generation methods.

1. If the user presses CTRL+ENTER a random uiid is used as the id for the second file.
2. If the user inserts a split marker with CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER and selects Split At Markers, the id of the next file will be Section0001_0001.xhtml, Section0001_0002.xhtml etc.

Would it be possible to re-use the id generation code from the Split At Markers code for Split At Cursor or would that cause all kinds of other problems?
