Yes, it takes a human being to tag for reflow, or Acrobat (or some other tool) would just do it for you. Unfortunately the human beings often think their job is done when the PDF is cooked, or they don't have a tool to do the tagging.
Lack of reading-order tagging also is why many PDFs convert so poorly. Same issue.
Still, it should be on Amazon's list somewhere, if only so they can put a checkbox on the feature list (it would be no better and no worse than any other ereader, since everybody is using Adobe's Reader Mobile SDK, including Kindle). I'd prefer they add PDF link support, actual rather than faux PDF annotation, porting these features back to DX/K2, and maybe a Sony-like two column navigation mode, before tackling reflow.
