[bug] Book block doesn't show up for node/view

Can't we access the un-aliased url somehow? This is also a problem when
setting up block paths in general.

When viewing a book page through /node/view/, the book block doesn't
show up. Using /book/view/ does work.

Sounds like a tricky thing to fix though.

e.g.:
http://drupal.org/book/view/1 [1]
http://drupal.org/node/view/1 [2]
[1] http://drupal.org/book/view/1
[2] http://drupal.org/node/view/1

could be fixed with the much discussed 'global context' feature which
will tell modules about the node currently being viewed

Also doesn't show up if a book node is accessed through an alias.

One possible fix will be to check the node type instead of the URL.
This will only work with nodes that have actually been created as book
pages, not for other types of content that have been organized in a
book.

Looking at the database, couldn't we just see if the current node id
exists in the book table? If it does, then it's part of a book.

we could check the book table. but where and how to do so? we don't want
to create a special case for books in the core engine.
