Why is that "thankfully"?

LRF format has headers that are small and unobtrusive. If you generate your own LRFs, you can even have the book chapter names included. I don't think forgetting the exact chapter is any sort of indication of book quality!

To me, it's horrible interface to have NO INDICATION of the book you're reading at all times. There is really no excuse for the Reader (or ePUB format) not telling you what book you're on. Just like telling you page numbers and chapters should be a given.
