I do 99% of my formatting in the html code view, but for a specific operation (namely creating line-breaks for verse) I have historically used the BookView/WYSIWYG functionality.

Having finally taken the plunge after about ten years and upgrading to the latest version of Sigil from 0.7.2, I'm trying to figure out how best to adapt my existing workflow with the least amount of pain. In that spirit I've installed the PageEdit program/plugin, and have run into the first obstacle in my learning curve.

Specifically, when I get to text in Sigil that requires my switching to PageEdit, opening the plugin leads to my losing my place in the project, as it opens the file at the beginning rather than where the cursor was when I hit F2. I've combed through the preferences, but I'm not seeing anything in either program that addresses this issue? Am I looking in the wrong place, or is this a problem without a solution?
