[Framers] Thumb Tabs

[Harding, Dan]

"That seems wrong to me. Master pages should not vary from chapter to chapter."

Since when? As long as the page dimensions and main text flow frames are identical, master page ancillary content can most certainly vary by chapter. You are not limited to using a single master page set for an entire book.
