Book module workflow improvements

While working on http://drupal.org/node/279333 I realised a fairly critical flaw in the plan - book module doesn't create hierarchies for book pages (or pages) by default - you have to go into the book fieldset, make a new book, and then it'll create the hierarchy - otherwise you just get a regular old page.

I haven't looked at the code which handles this fieldset yet, but assuming that other patch has legs, maybe we could hook_form_alter a #default_value into the 'page' node form so that it creates a hierarchy by default, and expands the fieldset by default. If that patch dies, it might still be worth doing this for 'book page'. this would bring things back somewhat to the D5 behaviour - where book pages were always in a hierarchy whatever happened.
