Additional information (optional)
The manga imported is only on Volume not Chapters so that could add to this issue,
Currently the continue button doesn't support returning to specific pages, it only goes to the latest unread chapter. The client doesn't track the latest viewed page, just whether a chapter has been "read".

Is this a planned feature, or is there a reason it doesn't track the pages?

There's no reason not too, the client just doesn't store that information (the latest viewed page), which makes this a nontrivial feature since that would need to be added to the storage schema.
It's something I'd like to add, but it's not a high priority for me right now.

@xgi Please reconsider this, recently has been usual for manga to come in digital volumes (.cbz/.cbr), and with houdoku if you are reading a local volume, say you leave at page 163/200, when you come back to read it it will take you to page 1 again, which is just unusable.
Right now, the only way to fix this is by extracting the whole volume and manually separating each chapter into a folder. And even then it doesn't fix anything because if the chapters are long enough, then you are still left off at page 1/40 or something like that.
