Out of curiosity I examined all 39 books I have.

I found that of 39 books, 26 had the entirety of the book in a single "chapter 1 xhtml".
Only 13 books had the book split across multiple files.
Of those 13 books, 12 had conventional chapters anyway, and only 1 (Small Gods) had no chapters but still distributed across two xhtml (presumably for size).

I don't doubt you've seen differently formatted Discworld ebook releases, but unfortunately the ones I picked up from a recent HumbleBundle (published by HarperCollins) do suffer from this.

What do you mean by section break?

I did try patrik's suggestion and it seems to be sound advice. The concern about creating many xhtml files is unfounded, I think, since the feature explicitly splits by configurable file size (with a suggested 260KB).

Annoyingly this is not an option in the kepub output, so I'd be doing two conversion passes and I'd rather do none. I fear automatically applying sweeping changes, when I'd rather just fix the issue in front of me.

Thanks!
