Picking up section name from a separate file

The approach I'd take is to use the $volnum system variable to define the
section title. That way, in the book file you'd define the variable's value
(as a text string) in the numbering properties for the section divider files,
and set each other file's numbering properties to "Same As Previous".
Neat, clean, and easily explained in a simple book setup procedure for
other users.
