I wonder if what you mean is that it would be nice to have some automated 
way of producing a master file, so that you might only have to specify 
which chapters to include.  If so, I would also be interested in hearing 
if there is an emacs/auctex way of doing this, or least of eliminating 
what I think is the problem you are describing:  I've had projects with 
many short chapters and it was definitely tedious and error-prone work to 
comment out the right \includeonly statements.
