If the top-margin is changed to padding-top, then the space is not lost and carries over to the next page so you have more empty space at the top of the page and then the next paragraph has no indent.

Try it and see if switching margin-top to padding-top when the book has a blank space for the section break works for you. I'd be interested to know.
I did say before that it *might* be enough for me to recognize there was extra space at the top of the page. If I'm really engrossed in the book I doubt I would recognize that it was a scene break with only a 2 em spacing. I would wonder if I missed something and have to go back a page to figure it out and then be annoyed that I was brought out of the story.
