I'm somewhat unconvinced for the need for PAGE sections so far. It seems to me:

1) The only thing that uses it is Amazon's servers. And since you cannot send AZW3 by email anyway, generating AZW3s with PAGE sections appears to be useless, unless you intend to send you book to KDP, and KDP does not accept calibre generated AZW3 files anyway.

2) The other possible use case is converting kindlegen produced AZW3s to EPUB. However, since the only way to (typically) get hold of kindlegen produced AZW3s is generating them yourself, you should already have an epub with a page map, so I dont see why you would not want to use the source epub directly.

That said, the code is pretty trivial, so I might just add it anyway. But it is not a priority.
