In what circumstance would it be necessary to keep a
section break? I ask because I haven't come across a
book where it was needed--maybe for double columns,
like in an index? But then one could put one in. I've
globally replaced section breaks with manual page
breaks, but they were simple section breaks--I didn't
have the problem Monica mentions.
