- Equally great would be to be able to search or highlight document text by style. Often in format shifted content you get a large number of styles and it's difficult to tell the good from the bad so that one can homogenize them

i'd love to see these features as well. regarding creating the human-readable style names, you can modify the css yourself and put the name you want ; if you do this before applying the style too much it's very easy (if you've already applied the style eleventy million times, perhaps a bit of "search and replace" in an outside editor could be handy).

Other formatting niceties- Would be great to be able to insert page breaks as an alternative to Chapter markers

if i understood correctly, the "chapter marker" inserted by sigil will result in a pagebreak on export in epub. is that what you are asking about ?
another question for you, valloric : i know jellby asked previously about showing only specific parts of the file, this is similar but different (

), i am wondering if you have any plans to be able to show the css only either in a separate pane or a tab view or something ? i ask because i like to be able to define / modify new styles as needed "on the fly" when formatting a new text, and it's helpful if i can switch between the html and the css without having to navigate to find my place again each time (even with line numbers for the code, it's still annoying

). i thought about trying to open the same document in two instances of sigil but i imagine this would create a conflict with the buffers or saved versions or something... should i create an issue ?
