Good point! Chapter info is available through CI descriptor.

What is requested is an E# *entry number* containing the label (Figure Table,
Drawing, …) and the number. And it looks it is already available because we can
vary what is inserted in the table with the Display menu:
- References: the complete paragraph
- Category & number: beginning of paragraph up to the number range plus the
next character if it is not a space
- Caption Text: end of paragraph after number range and non-space character
suffixed to it, run of spaces being ignored before first word or symbol

So E# could collect what is designated by Category and Number, E be restricted
to Caption Text instead of present References.

>From experiment, what is important is the present of a number range in a
paragraph. The field is the split position.

PS: I got funny fancy but rather consistent results by using two different
number ranges in a caption. I don't know if this unintentional feature may be
useful to someone. It allows to have the same caption in two different tables,
even when the second number range is hidden to avoid strange dual-numbered
captions. Funny, I said.
