Time left in chapter/book

I'm a student and have been buying books electronically. I have a fairly large Logos library and have now built a bit of a kindle library. The new version of Logos for Android is awesome, a great step forward, and the difference between reading on the kindle and in logos really comes down to one feature now, the time left in chapter/book feature that the kindle has. 

Its super critical to be able to assess how much time I have available and low long the current chapter will take to complete. Is there any chance that this sort of feature could be added to Logos or Vyrso at any time soon?

I realize that many books already have chapter divisions that could be used, then it would be a matter of reading ahead the number of words and the current number of words used every page turn and then the rate of page turns per minute could be used to figure this out. 

Thanks

    Yes, I've noticed this feature in Kindle too, and I really like it. It's helpful to know if I'm likely to finish the current chapter before I put the book down for the night. If I can, I will keep reading. If not, I'll find a good stopping place and just stop there.
