You're right, of course.
The problem is that Ian wants to really have a revert option (and we can't
use revert either, because of confusion with \revert).
How about
\useBookOuptutSuffix
\useBookOutputName
\usePreviousBookOutputName
or
\bookOutputSuffix
\bookOutputName
\bookOutputNameUsePrevious (I hate the english of this, but it sorts where
it belongs and it captures the intent).
