I agree with Valorie, and I think this is a great direction. Have you
tried experimenting with the site to see how a live version could look
like?

I think the "section editor" is really about making new areas where
chapters can be created (and later, easily moved). What I understood
is that chapters need to belong to certain section anyways, to allow
for different texts on the same topic to exist.

That said, the mocks look really, really cool.
