Default Section break behavior in master documents

I created subdocuments from an existing document by using the Heading 1
style and the Create Subdocuments icon on the Outlining toolbar. Word
dutifully split the existing document into subdocuments and inserted a
continuous page break between each new subdocument. So far, so good.
However, when I use the Insert Subdocument icon to add a series of
subsequently-created documents to the end of the master, the new subdocument
comes in with a new page section break at the end. So far, I have been
manually changing these to continuous page section breaks for consistency
with the master document as originally created. Is there any less tedious
way of accomplishing this?

(I have read the cautionaries in this newsgroup against use of master
documents.)
