R help - Sep 2018 - YAML for bookdown

Does anyone know where I can look up all the possible things that can be
set in the YAML for bookdown?  Is this documented anywhere?  The bookdown
book (https://bookdown.org/yihui/bookdown/) just provides a few example
things.  Is the only thing to do RTFS?  Really customizing this seems hard.

I think there is nothing special about bookdown except for options 
contained in the output declaration.  (I.e. other top level YAML is the 
same as for any other RMarkdown output.)

The possible entries within "output: bookdown::gitbook" are exactly
the
arguments to the bookdown::gitbook function.  It passes ... to 
rmarkdown::html_document, so those arguments are available too.

If you're using a different bookdown output format, the allowed entries 
will be the arguments to whatever function you use.
