Is the content of chapter always some unknown elements plus a sequence
of section elements?

In that case you could of course also simply map section to file
elements with e.g.

 B <xsl:template match="section">
 B  <file>
 B B B  <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
 B  </file>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="section[1]">
 B  <file>
 B B B  <xsl:copy-of select="preceding-sibling::*, ."/>
 B  </file>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="chapter/*[not(self::section)]"/>
