[daisy] Chapter numbering in Book Rendering fails, if no Heading1 precedes other Headings

[Kevin_Walsh at deichmann.com]

Dear list,

for the first time we have implemented a German government questionaire in 
daisy. i.e. every department will answer their specific questions. The 
questionnaire's questions are numbered and the document has to be handed 
in with the same chapter numbering (following scientific numbering, e.g. 
1.2.3)

Both, the generation of HTML, and PDF do not seem to do this, though.

Example:
A book structure from an imported navigation is:

Book Name
Document01-title
 - Heading 2
        text text text text text text 
    - Heading 3
           text text text text text text 
           text text text text text text 
Document02-title
    text text text text text 
 - Heading 2
        text text text text text text 
Heading 1
   text text text text text 
 - Heading 2
        text text text text text text 

When generated as a daisy book, the numbering will come out as:

Book Name
1 - Document01-title
   Heading 2
        text text text text text text 
     Heading 3
           text text text text text text 
           text text text text text text 
2 - Document02-title
    text text text text text 
   Heading 2
        text text text text text text 
  2.1 Heading 1
     text text text text text 
     2.1.1 Heading 2
          text text text text text text 

Note that the headings in the first document ar not numbered at all and 
ONLY the headings AFTER Heading 1 in Document02 are numered correctly.
I do see the problem that the first Heading 2 in Document02 would be on 
the same level as Heading1, but we need some numbering that we can use. 
Formatting the questions as heading1 will not work in our case, since the 
questions are VERY long, with lots of options.

Would this be a feature, rather than a bug? 
Or should I enter an issue? 
Tis is quite important for us, since our management will actually be 
participating for the first time and I do hope that they will like it and 
further daisy's use (the acceptance of documenting is very low among our 
developers).

Thanks in advance!
Kevin
