I don't think ebooks should slavishly follow paper books, so if the scene break is really an anonymous chapter start I'd be happy with a page break. Similarly with Dune. I have a lot of Dune on paper and recently got the 1st 3 cheap as ebook, so I will put page breaks and TOC to the start of each "history" quote...
Ahhhh.....but the question is "What do you consider the '1st three' - timeline, or published, order??? "

Dune/Messiah/Children

-or-

Hunting Harkonnens/Butlerian Jihad/Whipping Mek
