Again, I don't recall... but if I remember it just overwrote... no warning or anything.

Would probably be better to have a popup that warns you of conflict (and maybe a basic rename that appends "-##" to the image).

For the most part I agree with the omnibuses(?)... but one of the latest books I converted was 400+ pages of various chapters/essays of an economist's work, organized by topic instead:
  • Chapter 2: Action and Value
    • Human Action
      • 1. Ends and Means
      • 2. The Scale of Value
      • 3. The Scale of Needs
    • Theory and History
      • 1. Judgments of Value and Propositions of Existence
      • 2. Valuation and Action
      • 3. The Subjectivity of Valuation
      • 4. The Logical and Syntactical Structure of Judgments of Value
  • [...]
  • Chapter 17: Economic Progress
    • Economic Policy
      • “Foreign Investment”
    • Human Action
      • 9. Entrepreneurial Profits and Losses in a Progressing Economy

Something like that would have been quite helpful... Then I could have had a structure along these lines:

..\##-NewChapterTitle\OldBookTitle\##-OldChapters.xhtml

Heh, that one was definitely pretty horrible to try to code compare to make sure I didn't botch anything when adding/deleting entire subchapters. :P
