I used essentially the same technique when coding an alternate reader for a long-running webcomic[1][2]
With use of url hashes, you can even deep-link to specific scroll positions, allowing links to be shared sanely.
As you have to know the dimensions of each "page" upfront to keep the scrollbar honest, I think this technique fits better with image-based content; textual content can have unpredictable flowing with different browser fonts, plus as siblings have noted it breaks ctrl-f.
