The autolayout file dictates the href, is used for generating ToCs and
the like. It controls how the site is "structured".

afaict, there's no way (or purpose) in having multiple layout files.
The idea is to have only one, and the site is completely heirarchical
in structure.

I would really like a recursive 'make' type arrangement, but without
hackery, this doesn't appear an easy solution... I am not at all
opposed to pulling stuff out of the Website XSL stuff and customising
it for our needs, however.
