But as for a header, it's not all that useful.

It could be on the header too, no need for a footer
And yes, you usually know what you are reading, but sometimes you have many short books in a series, or by an author, and you don't always remember exactly which one you are reading. Other times you know you are reading "that book about pyramids by a Swiss guy", but how was the author named?, what's the exact title? Many people are ready to sacrifice 15 page turns for that info.

What would be perfect in ePub is the ability to turn headers and footers on or off. Of course we need to have headers and footers in the first place.

That goes without saying.
Everything should be configurable, from font size to margins and headers.
