Thank you, it's always really encouraging to read this!

Actually the node type "TYPO3.Neos:Shortcut" is meant to behave like a 
symlink and it did once.
Right now it triggers a browser redirect but it should directly point to 
the target node (as it is the case in TYPO3 CMS).

IIRC Christian is already working on this!?

Chapter is just an example of a custom document node type.
A document node can have child nodes, appears in the navigate component 
and is usually directly accessible in the browser.
The default document node type is *page* but in Neos you can have all 
sorts of things appearing in the tree. For example products, employees 
or ...chapters of a book ;)
Take a look at the definitions in the example site package[1] for more 
details.

Good point.. The aloha shortcuts [2] work by default
