    design and pre-production are two different things.

    one: do the design in an application where you can easily make changes through stylesheets and swatches. only indesign suits this job. imagine changing the grid or font in 200 illustrator files. crazy.

    two: when the design is approved, produce photoshop or illustrator files (depends on html or flash website) with not the complete design again, but only the needed template pages. all other little different things like buttons etc in an additional document.

    illustrator is an nice application for drawing things, but not for designing a complete book or website.
