This would be a great feature. We had been thinking about a very similar thing the other day.
Instead of turning pages via pedal we'd thought it would be great to highlight the next ChordPo section and just flip the page or scroll down if neccessary.
This would also solve one of our main "issues" when connecting to a master and letting him turn the pages: Different screen sizes and layout settings. Some of us prefer portrait mode, others like landcape mode, some hide the chords to just see the lyrics, etc. which results in very different page numbers for everyone.
If we could jump ahead by sections and not by pages and the app could scroll or flip pages as needed, those issues would all be gone .
Currently we are working around this by using lots of {np} tags, basically after every verse or chorus etc. But that way we obviously waste a lot of screen space on the bigger displays to accomodate for the smaller tablets.
I don't even think, the "current" section would have to alway be at the top. Some form of highlighting and if neccessary jumping to the next page might work even better.
