  • Default title for new book(s) is still take from first selected section, even if earlier sections are checked for 'always include'.
I can confirm that both of the above seem to work fine, as does as the "per TOC" behavior.

Issues:
  • UI is kinda crap.
    • How's a novice user supposed to know when to check boxes and when to select?
    • Should 'always include' checkboxes be configurably hidden until option is enabled?
    • Needs tooltips if nothing else.
  • I don't think I'm de-duping if a section is both checked and selected.
Without radically changing the layout of the UI, I think just hiding the checkboxes until enabled in config might be simplest. Hiding that by default would also minimize the chance that the lack of de-dupe would be needed, I think, since that would probably only come into play if someone was confused about the check vs select thing and tried to do both for the same single section?
