Following this: https://www.chordpro.org/chordpro/directives-env/, all environment directives start with start_of_ and end with end_of_. We should be able to add custom environment directives like that: {start_of_prechorus}. And {start_of_prechors:Prechorus} should show "Prechorus" above the section.
