Reading View improvements

Reading View is one of the Logos' hidden gems for dynamic small group study and could become much more useful with new facilities.
With a resource setting of column=1 and a large font Reading View becomes a dynamic presentation for small groups. I often share a working screen to attendees--either using a flat panel TV when we meet in person or via the Zoom screen share mechanism.
1. Add true page control where document page breaks force the next page rather than merging pages. Could be implemented using strategically placed [[@Page:?]] milestones, or some other page-break protocol.
2. When activated, hot links to Bible passages specifying a range (such as Luke 19:45-48) should stop at the concluding passage showing ONLY the specified verses.
3. When the cursor hovers at the screen top, the panel tabs appear and may be activated. This is very useful. In a similar way, add floating displays when the cursor hovers over the other screen edges. I suggest floating Favorites on the right and a quick Table of contents on the left. Another possibility would be the temporary display of an adjacent panel in the appropriate direction. (I always have a narrow, structured Favorites panel at the right edge for quick links to a specific planned resource location.)
