Reading back through ListField <http://tiddlywiki.com/#ListField> and Order 
of Tagged Tiddlers <http://tiddlywiki.com/#Order%20of%20Tagged%20Tiddlers> 
it seems that I'm not using them in the way they were intended. My method 
works, but may have unintended side effects. To use the *list* tiddler 
field according to the official documentation, as far as I understand it, 
you shouldn't need to apply the *list* field to each sub-heading tiddler. 
Instead, you're supposed to list the titles of each sub-heading tiddler in 
the *list* field of the main heading tiddler (eg. the "Chapter 3" tiddler 
in my example above), in the order you want the titles of the sub-headings 
to appear.

Personally I think my way is much easier to set up initially, especially if 
you don't know / haven't yet created the titles of the sub-heading 
tiddlers. The unintended side effect of my method is that you'd need to 
revisit each sub-heading tiddler to change the sort order. Using the method 
in the official docs, you only need to revisit the main heading tiddler to 
change the sort order, or to add a new sub-heading tiddler in the middle of 
your required sort order. Even so, I think this field should be renamed to 
*sort* or *order* rather than *list*.
