I tried the page break before in my test file and it works in a couple of readers including ADE. However, as expected, iBooks disregards it.

It's part of the boilerplate when I create a epub in Sigil. While it makes no real difference, it can trigger the correct validation in some error checkers so I just leave it alone. You can't reference XHTML in the doctype declaration since it would appear as an external entity which are not supported and will trigger a validation error.

From years back, I seem to remember a reference to workarounds for page breaks and iBooks from Elizabeth Castro's pigsgourdsandwikis.com site but not something that I paid much attention to at the time.
