Speech Bubble Zoom

Describe your suggested feature

There's only one thing that wish TACHIJ2K had and it's Google's BUBBLE SPEECH ZOOM. It uses machine learning to recognise speech bubbles and intelligently zoom into them for easier reading. Move from bubble to bubble one tap at a time, and still allows to keep the full-page experience. This vastly improves the reading experience and allows to enjoy the comic without zooming anywhere, especially on devices with smaller screens, like phones. The difference is night and day.

Here's a demo. https://www.theverge.com/platform/amp/2016/7/21/12229074/google-play-books-bubble-zoom-machine-learning-sdcc-2016

Seems like the guys over at Seeneva have built an open source manga/comic reader with this feature. Maybe there is a way to work with them to include such features into Tachiyomi :)

Other details

I requested the exact same thing about 2 years ago but was declined due to lack of open source ML models. But now that some folks have already done the heavy lifting and made the ML models open source, I am hoping it should be easier to implement.

Perfect viewer have a speech bubble zoom and separate magnifier function. Its nice if someone can develop something similar in tachiyomi.

Is this being worked on? or not a priority as of now.
