This may not apply to what you're looking for.  But as far as creating 
new blocks for a module it is better to make another page in the module 
directory and then create a module block with the "page" block option 
pointing to your new page.

Examples is the relatedlinks.php in the story module.

You will not necessarily need a new section.

The sections are how the blocks are assigned.

If your site does not need different blocks when your module is being 
displayed you can just call it like index.php?module=MyNewModule.
