You are assuming here that publishers expect e-readers to behave like the KOBO does. I'm not sure whether this is a valid assumption, since most e-reading devices and apps seem to behave differently. I would guess that publishers just handle the toc data like a table of contents in a printed book.

Or do you think publishers are putting all this stuff (and especially the advertising blurbs) in a book but don't want people to read it?
