Hello all!

As some of you may know, Terry Pratchet's Discworld series of books don't have chapters.

Which means, in the kepub, an entire book is contained in a single "chapter" file. I believe this is the reason that highlighting can lock up my Elipsa 2E for 20s or more. In particular when I'm trying to extend a highlight I just made.

I'm wondering if anyone had suggestions for how I might reprocess the kepubs to fix the problem. Ideally without changing the way the book is rendered visually.

Thanks!
