If it is an independent file or structure, referencing existing points in the book, it should work except for the extra time.
In KFX the page number information is somewhere in between. It is a list of pointers into the content that is included within the KFX file. I would prefer to generate it as part of conversion, and will still do so as part of the KFX Output plugin, but I will also add the ability to update the page list as part of the KFX Metadata Writer since the content of custom columns is available there.
