Oh, I completely understood what you've been saying - no need to get angry with me.

And I can perfectly remember, that is hasn't been the first time you've been requesting it. But you should try to realize, that you're not with the majority on this. Most people seem to be OK with the progress bar and there are even ones that don't like the page numbers in ePubs...

BTW: I'm perfectly happy with the progress bar and the information it provides. When I've read for half an hour, I'm nearer to the end - this is my progress... I tend to see a book more like a journey.
