As for a section break, I don't mind just space or something like * * * as long as it is consistent. It's when it's not that I mind.

When reading on my 650, I prefer no margins.

I like my eBook to look clean and not cluttered with useless spacing that draws the eye away from the book. I don't like a 5% indent. Way too large. And a lot of margins are just too big. What I think is that publishers need to send their eBook staff to eBook formatting 101.
True that. One or two letters indent is more than enough. And margins are something of the past that have no need on ereaders. The margins I have on my custom-generated PDF's are 1mm, I believe, just to keep them out of the shadow of the slightly raised bevel.
