But you should be able to pop up a window in javascript to display
what addition info you want (just like a pop up footnote). And what about using javascript to add an "aside" or footnote element, that might work.

I think you are allowed to have a remote image as a remote resource and if so you can build an svg image of text on your server with up-to-date info that a current epub could display since it would be grabbed during initial layout. That might be worth trying.

So, if a 3 pages chapter became a 4 pages chapter after interaction with the user (modifing the DOM), the 4 page falls in the nowhere: turning the page 3 I do not read the page 4, but the page 1 of the next chapter.
