This would be really nice. Things would be much faster and swifter if we
can collapse a whole section (or maybe even a whole chapter) containing
lots of EPSs...
Anyway, Amir's idea looks very nice as well, in the sense that, even if we
go via the collapsable sections (which looks like *the* path) the TOC
popup could gain a lot of functionaly if we could collapse and expand
sections picking them from there (kind of button 3 operation or something
like that...)
