Yes, I know about this non-standard extension. In fact, I struggled
recently with a PDF using portfolios that could not be read using Adobe
reader 9. The provider of the pdf insisted, and continues to insist,
that one needs Adobe "version 9 or greater" and suggests that I have a
problem with my web browser (which has nothing to do with it), and of
course that I need Adobe flash (which is true for the latest Adobe
under Windows, but this too is irrelevant).

Just speculating, could one distribute a PDF that would be like a book
with many parts? I know that Hans is not a fan of part, but I wonder
how this is handled? I doubt that any viewers handle prefixed page
numbers properly. I just tried looking at a document were pagenumbers
are reset way=bychapter and evince at least starts each chapter with a
page number=1 in its navigation bar.

How would readers (people) deal with a PDF structured as:
Part I - print/A4
Part II - print/letter
Part III - screen
?
