well, i can't wait a minute longer
anyway, as there are many ways to invalidate structure the amount of
checking would not only become enourmous but also make the code pretty
much unreadable
also, having chapters outside parts can happen ... you really don't know
how often i have to write styles that violate all principles of
structuring (including consistent font usage)
