Remember page for "Start reading"

[BlueRaja]

If I stop reading in the middle of the chapter, the "start reading" feature still assumes I finished the chapter and starts me on the next one next time.

That's a limitation of the read marker system since it only knows if you've read the whole chapter or not, and it's set once the chapter's loaded. A good fix could be to set it only when the end of the chapter is reached, but that'll just start you at the beginning of that chapter instead of the middle.

I think that would be a better user experience, so that if I accidentally click "next" and then close, I don't skip a chapter.

Also, if you want to avoid excessive calls to the server, you could save the user's current page location to local storage. It wouldn't work when switching between computers, but I imagine it'd still work for >95% of cases.

Honestly that's a pretty clever idea, although there could start to become a problem for users who read a lot of manga chapters.
