Describe the feature you'd like
A toggle button to hide/show some special tags.
Most of ancient Chinese articles need to put annotations after some words in the main text. It looks like this:
軒轅之時，神農氏世衰。【note1】皇甫謐曰：「易稱庖犧氏沒，神農氏作，是爲炎帝。」班固曰：「教民耕農，故號曰神農。」【note2】世衰，謂神農氏後代子孫道德衰薄，非指炎帝之身，即班固所謂「參盧」，皇甫謐所云「帝榆罔」是也。【note 3】《帝王世紀》云：「神農氏，姜姓也。母曰任姒，有蟜氏女，登爲少典妃，遊華陽，有神龍首，感生炎帝。人身牛首，長於姜水。有聖德，以火德王，故號炎帝。初都陳，又徙魯。又曰魁隗氏，又曰連山氏，又曰列山氏。」《括地志》云：「厲山在隨州隨縣北百里，山東有石穴。（曰）〈〔昔〕〉神農生於厲鄉，所謂列山氏也。春秋時爲厲國。」諸侯相侵伐，暴虐百姓，而神農氏弗能征。於是軒轅乃習用干戈，以征不享，
Usually I put the notes in [quoteblock] or . The toggle is used to show/hide the notes.

Describe the benefits this feature would bring to BookStack users
The readers don't need to see the notes all the time. If there is a toggle button somewhere, it will be a good choice for those who need this feature.

Additional context

Describe the feature you'd like
The paging function allows users to control the content ("page" in BookStack) displayed in different pages.

Describe the benefits this feature would bring to BookStack users
It is very useful for some long articles in Chinese, maybe in Japanese also.

Hi @quildcrest,

Thanks for your request.

For 1. We already have a request in issue #78 for toggle-able/collapsible show/hide blocks. This sounds like it would achieve the same thing?

For 2. I don't really want to have pagination within a BookStack "page". I think that could easily cause confusion and works against the current design structure/metaphor. I'd rather recommend that you split larger pages into multiple smaller pages.

Since there's been no follow-up or further discussion I'm going to close this.
