Basically the Semantics menu adds the <guide> element info. How an RS uses that info is up to the RS. It's allowed to completely ignore it if it wants to.

Hello Valloric,
I'm not sure if this is worth a feature request (and am happy to make one if it's appropriate), but is it possible to consider adding the "start" item to the semantics menu so you can select a beginning page for an ePub file?
I'm not sure if the ePub format uses this item for anything, but when they are converted to MOBI it determines what page the book opens at on a kindle (and I assume other MOBI ereaders). Would be a useful (and I imagine easy to implement) addition to the semantics list.
EDIT: Just noticed the "start" item isn't listed in the OPF spec so I guess it's not an official tag. I guess I could use the "text" tag, but I want to force a book to open at a graphic and using the "text" tag seems like misuse. Is there any way to add a "custom" semantic field in Sigil?
