I'm not sure if you're artificially complicating matters. Both things can be achieved simply by modifying your reference-doc heading styles, having first level heading include a pagebreak before, and being numbered. Then you can put any name to the files (numbers if you like for sorting), and all your chapters will be sensibly numbered (independently of what the name of the original file was).

In addition to adding page breaks between the chapters, I'd like to have the title (first level-1 heading, in this case) prefixed with an chapter number taken from the file name. I want to do this dynamically, as I might rename/resort/reorganize the files based on their names.
So, for example, `1-01-reagle.md` is the first chapter in the first section, and could have '1.' prefixed to its first heading. In looking at filters, especially panflute, all the examples are of stand-alone filters that are stateless between invocations...
```
0-01-reagle-koerner.md
1-00-hindsight.md
1-01-reagle.md
1-02-benjakob-harrison.md
1-03-hill-shaw.md
```
Any suggestions?
