This poster's question is significant for accessibility.  Braille, large 
print, speech, and other accessible versions of print editions typically use 
the page numbers of the (base) print (paged media) edition to allow users of 
accessible documents to communicate with each other and with users of the 
print edition.  While I appreciate that the concept of "page number" is 
somewhat meaningless when using eReaders, the accessibility community has 
not AFAIK addressed alternative solutions. So at least in the forseeable 
future this is a capability that accessible media producers need.
