I know this thread has been closed, but I feel it important to address one simple thing that always seems to be overlooked by those who want to lament the "loss" of Book View.

You (and users like you) don't have to "wish" for anything. And you certainly don't have to learn to code and write your own software. It's much easier than that. You can continue to use the version(s) of Sigil that work best for you. Nothing you like has been taken away from you. Book View has not been taken away from anyone. It's still right where it was in all the older versions of Sigil that are still available (and always will be). No one is obligated (nor is it a right) to upgrade to the latest version of Sigil. Use the Book View versions for as long as you like with our blessings. THAT'S the actual source of frustration for me (RE the incessant complaining)--the idea that we've somehow reached into your computers and stolen something from you. We've done nothing of the sort. We've taken nothing from you. Nothing whatsoever. It's still right there where it always was. Use it in good health.
