What is useful for you might not be useful for someone else, perhaps it
could be useless or, worst, "unwanted".

There is nothing to understand, this is a use case! In the same way I don't
understand why it's useful to have TOC like the current one.

The behavior I've been described is the default behavior in DITA-OT (the
reference implementation of DITA), and we (and perhaps someone else) find it
very useful!

In SIEMENS, we bought licenses for XFC because DITA-OT misses formats like
wml and odf, and we actually use DITAC+XFC to create these kinds of formats.
Unfortunately this unexpected (let me say also forced and not customizable)
behavior in the chm output of DITAC compells us to rely on the DITA-OT for
chm :(.
