while viewing long pages it would be nice to know which section of the page you are currently viewing.

e.g.
If I am reading a paragraph "Development" where title can be h1
I should see a notifier while scrolling down some where on the page which hides once I am not scrolling.

if there sub heading under "Development" say "Sub" wrapped with h2
I should something like 
Development
   Sub

or 

Development>Sub

I should also be able to click any of these section to directly to that section.

In brief mimic a book type style where you can see which chapter/section you are reading.

Reproducible: Always

Thanks for sharing your idea. 
Currently there are no plans to provide this idea in the native application, as your idea likely would only be useful for a small amount of users. However it could always become an extension or add-on which would be provided by third party developers, but not by the Mozilla developers themselves. Hence proposing WONTFIX for the native application.
