I have a question regarding the handling of master pages when FrameMaker book 
components are round-tripped.

If a book contains several document types (Preface, Chapter and so on), the 
master pages can be applied as appropriate using master page mapping tables. 
Thus different document types can contain different sets of master pages and 
corresponding different master page mapping tables.

When setting up a structured application, each structured application can only 
use (as I currently understand it) a single EDD and template. This mechanism 
therefore does not seem to allow for different master pages and mapping table 
sets per document type, and the only workarounds would be:

. [Good] To ensure that all document types in a book contain the same superset 
of master pages and the same master (universal) page mapping table.

. [Cumbersome] To construct separate struct apps for each document type.

Am I correct, or are there mechanisms that can be used to find another way?
