The ext folder is just a storage folder for the alias and chapter files, which are only for the builder, not the Kindle. The only file that goes to the kindle is the .asc file that gets saved into the out folder, and that one goes in your book's .sdr folder on the Kindle.

Getting the X-Ray file built for a book you haven't heard yet is the big dilemma here
In some cases you can just guess at what they might be. I open the .rawml file and search for things without actually reading to see what might match.

The biggest issue arises when a Shelfari page doesn't have any info for a book, in which case you pretty much have to read the book and edit Shelfari to get a X-Ray built.
It would be nice if it were easier to build x-rays for a specific book and then make a site to download them from, but I can't see that being possible at all, because almost everyone's copy of a certain book is going to be slightly different...
