That's not the same type of header. That is just that particular reader showing the title across the top. The jetBook and Libre do the same. What the OP was talking about was running headers/footers that are defined in the XHTML itself. This would allow any text to be displayed at the top/bottom of the screen and changed when desired.

As the OP and myself mentioned, the markup to do this is in the epub spec (and the even older OEB spec). It's just that none of the current epub readers support these statements. Personally, I would like to see these supported, with the added ability to disable their display as a user setting.
