It would be nice if the editor could have an alternate “page view” similar to Word, Apple Pages and Google Docs. Maybe a page could be set to a certain number of lines (25 for example), so as you type, it shifts to a new page.
During a work session, I often find it preferable to set a goal of pages rather than words. Worrying about a precise word count can be counter productive, whereas number of pages is bit more loose, but you still get words down regardless.
Obviously, there would be a toggle if you wanted to switch back from page view to a normal view.
