Have had to revert to plan B to implement the original request (see 
trackers 404/714) and use bespoke functions and parser variables.

\bookOutputSuffix to set a suffix for the output filename in the current 
\book block.  (This sets new parser variable book-output-suffix).
\bookOutputName to set the output filename for the current book block 
(This sets new parser variable book-filename).

Scheme procedure print-book-with and the procedures it calls are 
modified to look at the new parser variables in addition to the old ones.

I will shortly post a patch on frogs and -devel for comments.
