I think in typesetting that's called a leading (or lead-in, can't quite recall which). When I see them I always assume it was meant for the printed version - it always feels a bit awkward in eBooks.

I've also seen attempts at drop-caps that didn't quite work so well in the eBook.

Also, notices that the eBook I purchased from Kobo was printed on 100% recycled paper. Yeah.
