Rationale behind this suggestion is bothersomeness of having to click tens of times to set chapter count, not being able to set it fast enough (if you double click it selects text instead) and, well, the fact that it's simply stupid.

If it's not entirely necessary, don't expect to see it for a while (if at all). ________________ "I'm not telling you to always do whatever you want.
