It probably should.  The stylesheet code, however, doesn't seem to make
any attempts about it:

(define (next-major-component-chunk-element #!optional (elem (current-node)) (in-chain #f))
  ;; Return the next major component of the document that is not a descendant
  ;; of the starting element.  This is essentially 'next-sibling' but skips
  ;; over things that aren't chunks.
  (if (or (navigate-to? elem) in-chain)
      (if (member (gi elem) (major-component-element-list)) ; <--- It's a chapter or other major chunk.
          (if (node-list-empty? (node-list-first-element (follow elem)))
              (next-major-component-chunk-element (parent elem))
              (let ((nd (node-list-first-element (follow elem))))
                (if (navigate-to? nd)
                    nd
                    (next-major-component-chunk-element nd #t))))
          (ancestor-member elem (major-component-element-list))) ; <--- Else picks ancestor (should pick something
afterancestor). 
      (empty-node-list)))

I tried to change that but my first attempts seem to make the build take
forever.  I'll play around with it some more.

At least I think that's where it's happening ...
