The only hindrance is that when you start a book or change font size it does take a little time to calculate this info in the background.

Have you ever asked for this info (not true pages but great for reference) to be made available to the status bar?
Yes in the past and several others I know have asked but they wont budge for this to be added. I agree it wouldn't take much coding for it to work but the developer at least at that time was totally against it. Never lose hope though. I thought we'd be stuck with poor font rendering forever but they finally changed to a new engine or fixed it. I no longer have to use modify fonts on some devices. I can use the same fonts on all devices and they all render the same now.
