I'm using Reasily app on my Android and the way it works is this: Scroll takes you up to, but not beyond internal boundaries, then to go to the next section you swipe sideways.
I can imagine a similar behaviour with the trackpad. Scrolling takes you to the end of section. Then you can either press the right arrow key or scroll sideways to move to the next section.
Another possibility that I've seen in another app is that there is a sort of "resistance" when you scroll to the end of a section when you scroll to the end. You have to scroll "harder" to pass beyond the end of chapter.
Either one of these behaviours would make flow mode much more pleasant in my opinion. I tend to keep the line I'm reading at the top of the screen. This implies that when I get to the end of the chapter, at one point it skips the last page and move on to the next chapter. This is what I'm trying to avoid.
I'm ready to test development versions of the viewer if this helps. I'm using Ubuntu.
