Describe the feature/enhancement

Thank you so much for adding #991.

I would like to request an additional alert when looking up chapters. I have a couple books that have consolidated the first several small credits chapters (Opening credits/Dedication/Epigraph in the example looked up chapters) into one chapter (Intro & Epigraphs). Since the chapter marks are off by a couple seconds through out the book I can't just over write everything. I thought I could manually add a couple dummy chapters in the right places to get the titles to line up to the right chapters. But I didn't notice the number of chapters was off when I first encountered a book like this.

If you could add another alert message like the one below, but have it notify the user that the number of chapters doesn't match. That would be a great help.

Thanks again.

Rather then another alert I put it like this:

The numbers turn orange when they are mismatched.

That's cool. Any kind of visual notification is what I was after.

Thanks.
