I have a prerelease version ready for this feature (part titles in the
--splitpart navigation header), which I will be sending to you
presently. However I have a question to you all: what would you prefer
to be displayed in this case? The navigation header was until now:
"Previous: Chapter 5" and now should include the title, but "Previous:
Chapter 5: How to Make Friends" has one colon too many. I have played
with a few possibilities:
  Previous Chapter 5: How to Make Friends
  Previous Chapter 5: How to Make Friends
  Previous: Chapter 5  How to Make Friends
  Previous: Chapter 5, How to Make Friends
  Previous: Chapter 5. How to Make Friends
  (Previous) Chapter 5: How to Make Friends
  [Previous] Chapter 5: How to Make Friends
  Previous: How to Make Friends
But none is fully convincing. What do you think?

Thanks,

Alex.
