Is it possible to get the position or the reference (paragraph number) of a book's selectedText?

Also, is it possible to get the text of the paragraph that the selectedText is located within?

Also, i'd like to be able to highlight the selectedText in a different color, and have that persist while the book is open. My assumption is that i would have to insert a <span></span> around the selectedText. Would this be something I'd do via Qt or javascript?
