This can be a significant problem as you point out and I think that the epub standard ignores it.

The problem with an in file pagination solution like eb1150 is that you are then tied to a particular reader implementation (screen size, font size and layout algorithm). I am very concerned that it may not be possible to layout HTML+CSS on existing devices quickly enough, in which case .epub is useless as anything other than an archival format, and as for archiving a zipped up set of HTML files with a opf for metadata and structure information is good enough.
