Hopefully, this will make everything clearer to everyone involved.

Hope this helps.


Fantastic summary of what Mister L intends.

Omnibuses (combining or splitting) are one use-case.

For example, the case I gave before of TOC:

Code:
“Article Title” by First Last
where the HTML might be:

Code:
<h2>Article Title</h2>
<p class="author">First Last</p>
Let's say I have Volumes 1-10 of journal articles in a single EPUB, and now I want to split each volume into 10 individual EPUBs.

I have a perfectly good TOC already generated... so (theoretical) plugin should be able to:

Code:
<h2 title="“Article Title” by First Last">Article Title</h2>
<p class="author">First Last</p>
This allows me to import Volume 1's HTML files into a separate EPUB, then regenerate using Sigil's Tools > Table of Contents > Generate Table of Contents.
