My point was that applying special formatting to "first pages" only makes sense in a non reflowable context. Rather than trying to replicate that blindly ina reflowable context it should be "translated". For example, instead of using "first page", use "first paragraph" or "first section" or "first block (enclose in a div and set its margins)"
The last solution is probably the best. IIRC calibre when converting it will convert to <blockquote> in MOBI which actually does allow margins.
