It seems that the issue with page numbers is that they can't be consistent, even on the same ebook on the same ereader, due to ebook formatting issues. Would a viable option be to include a marker (say a vertical bar on a line by itself) to indicate the top of a page, with everything between the bars considered one page regardless of the amount of text it contains (determined by the ebook formatting team)?

This would allow the ebook formatter to clearly indicate where each "page" begins regardless of the way the ebook is formatted. The ebook's formatting options wouldn't matter since the relative position of the "page bar" would be unchanged within the ebook. It would even allow an option for the "page bar" to be hidden if desired by the reader (if hidden the page would be formatted as if the bar didn't exist).
