I always bookmark and return to the library before shutdown, and have never had any bookmark problems.
I don't have many books on the reader. I'm not using an SD card. Everything is working fine, especially since Harry told me how to back out of the dictionary reliably (use the side button!.)
Here's something though about the page number issue that nobody has mentioned: sometimes reading a pbook I'll know that I have a total of say 350 pgs. (I may even have flipped back to check, especially if I'm aware that other stuff is added on at the end.) When I'm on page 340 (I read mysteries mostly) I know the denouement is going to occur over the next 10 PAGE turns. I've found it to be harder to judge how close, exactly, I am with the slider, especially if there are other things tacked on at the end like reviews or those publisher comments or author biography, etc. The last book I read hit the end before the slider ended, and it seemed abrupt. In a pbook I would have been mentally winding down.
That said, I know this isn't a major issue. For me, for anywhere except for the very last few pages, the slider works fine.
