I used your Mac-arm64 beta build to have a go at the new Role insertion dropdown menu.
Mostly useful provided you have a fair knowledge of what semantics you require but I did have a problem with footnotes.
I was using one of my books which have 1 to 6 footnotes at the end of each chapter. The footnotes are separated from the chapter text by a short (width 25%) <hr /> element. The only choice at the <hr /> level is page-break which is definitely what I don't want.
Beneath the <hr/> element is a <p> for each footnote. The only 'role' choice at this level is 'biblioentry' which is not what I need because the footnotes are all to internal references and not external.
The only way I found to apply a footnotes role is to wrap the <hr/> and all the <p>'s in a <div> tag. Then I was offered the epub:type footnotes as a choice.
All worked much better when I wrapped the footnote <p>'s in an <aside> tag which I suppose I ought to have done first of all. I've now added <aside> to my clips.
The footnote anchor in the chapter body text and the backlink were easy to use.
