What's the simplest way to structure an EPUB? Whatever it is, why don't folks do that more?

Calibre is the easiest tool to use to create an ePUB. It does generate the TOC ncx file for you based on headings in the files. It can directly take the zip file. If simplifies the process completely. there is a forum here for Calibre or you can look at the wiki.
