This is already the case for kepubs (books you buy from Kobo). They show page numbers per chapter, so at the bottom of the screen you'd see: Chapter 3: page 24 of 26. So you know you can keep reading to the end of the chapter before you go to sleep

The downside of this is that you won't be able to see how many pages the book itself has in total, so you won't know how many pages left to the end of the book.

Not really necesary, but it think this takes off the rought edge:
- On the option screen when browsing an e-book there's this "progressbar" that shows chapters and how much you've read so far. As you read more, the bar becomes completely black, covering the chapter markers. It would be nice if the chapter markers would be a couple of pixels lower, so you could still see them if you've read past them, or maybe the bar could be made a bit less opaque to still show the chapter markers through.
Oh, nice idea. Or maybe make the chapter markers 'white' when the black progress bar covers them...
