Ahh cool idea. Thanks.

I am able to use a single redefinition of the terms replacing story
with
section for all invocations of the StorySaverPlugin. I am wondering if
there is a simple solution to replace:

   "story" with "chapter" if I am looking at a series of chapters,
   "story" with "quiz" if I am looking at a series of quizzes

etc. I am happy with the current mechanism, but I am afraid my asking
you to add the multiple story type support opened this can of worms
as well.

Correct. I have a pull down set of chapters/presentations/quizzes and
I
would like to remove anything that may confuse the student.

Cool. I'll import it now and take a look.

Oh very cool. I have a nice use case for this.

Thanks. I see this being treated similarly to the "close others"
viewing options in the pulldown. So the view options would look like:

 [ ] "close others"
 [x] "open at botton"
 [ ] "open at top"
