Likely it is. While I'd rather not put effort into some idea as
moving/selecting chapters is easy to do there is on the other hand nothing bad
in adding such a function. But it should require customization (so off/hidden
by default).

Assigning the ticket to you, Jim.

Peter, since I only can think of a use case as described in ask.libreoffice
(selecting a chapter), I'd like to ask, if new feature in LO 7.6 
solves your problem.

Sounds like a idea rather than a real use case. The term range reminds me on
Calc where you define such subset in a matrix. In case of Writer it would be
Select Pages: [from] [to].

It's a slow and bulky interaction and I see no benefit.

This is similar to the already-implemented bug 154211: range selection using
elements in the navigator.
Given that the navigator does not have a page listing (only a jump-to feature),
and that it wouldn't make sense to list hundreds of pages, it can't be
implemented in the same way.

Just like we can print a range (or selection) of pages, I think it makes sense
to make it easy to select the contents of a range (or selection) of pages.

Jim and Design/UX team, what do you think?
