That's an excellent question, which I missed the first time through.
It irritates me to have to page through two or three screens of lists of numbers down the side of the screen, especially as ebook readers will almost always open at the same place that one closed the book. And even when the chapter numbers have chapter headings to them I don't think it adds much when reading the ebook.
I'm currently preparing
Lorna Doone as an ebook, which has 75 chapters. That's a LOT of finicky work on the toc.ncx file, and I doubt that too many people take any notice of it.
I'll definitely work out some way of adding this item to the questionnaire.
