Wouldn't an index be useful since it would put information on all terms in one place? I've got a number of pbooks where an index would be helpful so you can locate specific information within the book. Although a search function with an ebook reader is useful, an index would also be helpful.
An example of this is a book listing listing the 52 most depressing songs. A weakness in the book is that it has a table of contents, but that is all. If you want to find a specific song you have to go through the table of contents until you find the song you are looking for. An index of the song titles and groups would be a help you locate a specific song. I've got a VH1 book of the Top 100 albums has the same issue.
