Is it true that {{header|previous= |next= }} must be filled in manually for each chapter?
On English Wikisource we have a gadget which does this. It only works in Firefox.

Hi John, thanks, it's really excing! Can be,I'll upload a en.source text again just to see it at work. :-)
Nevertheless, I'm working about something deeply different. Our bot browse recent changes, and reads content new/edited pages of "interesting" namespaces. By now, it does banal jobs; but I guess, we'll add more and harder works, both "automatic" (t.i. something the bot "decides by himself" browsing the content of the page) or "requested" (I imagine into html comment: the first I'll implement will be something like this: <!-- Alebot, please keep away from this page --> ;-) to block Alebot without blocking other bots). I used some html comment "bot directives" into the last work I uploaded, they run but they aren't addressed to the Recent Changes script.
So, the mechanism will be browser-indipendent, since it will produce plain wiki code, just as a human diligent user; and it will be js-free too. I'll post news into my user WIP page if I'll got something decent (I'm not sure at all about!). But the en: pre-load idea is great, I'll try to study it, to customize it to it:source project!
