No - not a cranky customer.  It's very helpful.  In things like Chem Abs,
we put the abstract numbers on the spine.

Greetings from Louisiana-
In a past life, at a Law Library, I often placed page numbers on the spine of
law journals.  The faculty were happy and we had the binding budget to do it.
A few titles, such as the Federal Register need only the volume and page number
on
on the spine for the patron.  However, we included numbers for the shelvers.  It
is very difficult to shelve multiple volumes by page numbers.  I would suggest
that if a particular title really needs page numbers, to go ahead and do it.
