I don't know if we ever came up with a PDF file that we were sure was reflowable to see if the Reader's viewer would reflow it, so for all we know it might very well support reflowable PDFs.
It also occurs to me to wonder why adobe brought out Digital Editions (a totally separate, reflow-friendly format) if they could have just defaulted reflow to be active in standard PDF files ....

My understanding is that Acrobat can take existing PDF files and make them "re-flowable" by using the "make accessible" function. Have you tried this? I would think it would work pretty well for text documents.
