Yes, but I'd think that the page break preview takes these into account, 
even if indeed they are not displayed.

This can be much more easily achieved using the View / Page break 
preview menu.

I wanted to point that the close appearance of both items (top slider in 
the Preview toolbar and bottom slider in the status bar) confuse the 
user. This is why I'd prefer a modal window for page previewing.
