Until that happens we will have multiple formats with various reflow issues.

Again, I don't much mind as I don't have much current interest in e-reading beyond novles, and plain text reflows fine regardless of format (I'm not picky about occasional formatting errors). Magazines, PDF journal articles etc. I'll stick with print or web versions for now.
Books have never standardized on size and eBook Readers will not either. Different sizes meet different needs, there is no one size fits all device.
