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.
yes, but it is a different thing. I was working with interactive fiction in ebooks, or school books that "expand" or "compress" information following the student needs. This is a more radical vision of the book and I can not do this now if the ebook reader do not re-paginate the chapter when I change the DOM. Pop up is a nice idea, but for smaller part of text. BTW what you use for pop-up?

Nice idea, I have to try it. Thank you for the suggestion.
