I had planned on using the 'disk name' as the file name when
available. The rest of what you suggest sounds like exactly what disk
sets already do :) I would have the utility generate a disk set
definition as it split the file. Since it seems I'm not doing a good
job explaining disk sets here, I've added documentation on this
feature to the wiki, hope this makes it clear:
