And it would have to rerender each and every page every time you changed fonts, either size or type. In addition it would have to store this data for every page somewhere. Eventually it might have a particular book paginated well enough to read it but it would cost a lot of time and battery power.
The other choice is to map the page number to something that doesn't have to change all the time such as original page in the paper version (no place in the eBook for this data in mobipocket format) or paragraph number or like amazon does - every 128 bytes.
