I don't mind the progress bar, but I can see the benefits of turning it off. A few years ago I read Orson Scott Card's “Ender's Game” in a paperback that included “Speaker for the Dead”. I was a bit surprised by the ending of “Ender's Game” (in a good way) and I might not have been surprised if I had known, how much of the book was left. I didn't know that, because I didn't know when “Speaker for the Dead” would start.
