Yes, it should be possible to make it something else. But perhaps if all you want is simple concatenation, that could be automatic (unless something else is specified). (And should it be book/..../default, after all, isn't this typical metadata?) What is the best way to specify such an object "constructor"? (Should it be just a script? But that wouldn't work in the kernel, right?) PF
