I should just point out that by "predefined" I meant decided prior to display time... whether by the bookmaker explicitly indicating where the paper edition's pages begin and end, or by the bookmaker opting not to do so and thereby implicitly give their blessings to the default page assumption made by ADE.
I am largely in agreement with most of what you wrote by the way.
I did however get the impression before that some people seem to think the scroll (as in scrolling, not as in "a scroll"... since even those have pages) approach is preferable to the page(d display environment) approach.
