I agree with your first example because there's really no definition of the-first-paragraph-that-follows-a-section-break... but I would actually define the first paragraph in the chapter as <p class="first"> or <p class="CO"> (chapter opener) instead.
Code:
<h2>Chapter Title</h2>
<p class="first">Yadda yadda yadda.</p>
Then you can apply whatever styles you want to that particular class, not just no-indent. You can even easily set the css to do any number of things depending on your creativity and the capabilities of your device.
Code:
p.first {}
p.first::first-letter {}
p.first::first-line {}
...
...
...
You can even set that css to be responsive and compatible with all kinds of different devices/apps based on screen size, @media, @supports, backwards compatibility for ePub2, as well as all the fun/creative things that are possible JUST because you semantically defined the first paragraph.
And here is the part that you like best, Jon. You can leave it a plane, vanilla no-indent while still having it set semantically. It's a win-win!!
