I have a Kindle, which skips all that stuff, and I always go back to "Location 1" (and then page back to the cover) so I can page through it all! To me, that is part of the experience of starting a new book. Except sometimes if there is a lengthy introduction (especially if it's written by someone else, for example in the re-issue of a classic book), I will read the book and then go back and read the introduction if I'm still interested.

I wish I could set my Kindle to start at the cover, and not the first page of the text.

I don't think they are adding more of this kind of stuff to ebooks. I think you just never noticed it when you read pbooks, because it's faster to skip through.
