Great idea, but I can see this getting hairy quickly! Some books use lower case chapter names, so an algorithm that was smart enough to pick lower case letters at the start of a paragraph style instead of a chapter name style would be nice. Maybe something that counts the number of time a style was used? I've also seen cases where a paragraph that finishes with a lower case letter or a comma and the next starts with an upperc case character are still "bad breaks".

I'm sure there's someone in the Sigil world who has built up a fancy regex to find many of these. (Quick search...) There are some examples here, here, here and here.

Definitely a handy one if it could be implemented.
