I have a few lists. One is a textbook that I take a chapter at a time. The other lists are random words I'd like to learn that happen at haphazard times that I want to learn right away. Right now, as I understand it, you can set the option in your study settings to either always continue adding once a section is complete, or always stop when a section is complete.

It would be a nice option to be able to set individual lists to stop adding after the current section finishes, and set the other lists to continuously add. But of course, this is a small thing. I think it may make more sense in the UI if it is possible.

You're right, it would make more sense to have it on the individual list level rather than have it be global. It's not high priority but I've got it on my list of things to do.
