For position within a book I like the way the Kindle DX and K2 did it. On the right bottom was the length of the book in Kindle position numbers and in the middle was the numbers for the page that you are on currently. On the left bottom is the percent of the total file or book read. Close enough for me and only throws me a curve when the book is followed by a sample from another book or a short story. Page numbers start to end can have the same problem as can a large index or all the info from end notes in a scholarly publication.

I can be satisfied with any system once I get used to it as IMO none are perfect for all books.
