If you want an indication of what Adobe is thinking you should be asking marketing instead of engineering
Bill McCoy's blog contains interesting little nuggets such as this article:

My personal opinion is that if you want to do reflow it's much easier if you start with a reflowable file format instead of page oriented file format (and you'll get better results), and so I use ePub files on my Sony Reader instead of PDF files. Fortunately, the major publishers seem to be coming to this conclusion as well and they are moving to generating ePub content.
