I've just tested this on my own working copy, and confirm that it works.

I'm creating the chunk html with docbook2html, and I had to edit the
stylesheet it was using, which in my case was /docbook-utils.dsl (not XSL,
which the above link references.)

I changed the parameter:
(define %use-id-as-filename% #f)
to
(define %use-id-as-filename% "1")

and the chunk output is being named by section. Nice.
