This looks similar to me to the benefits the ::region pseudo element gives you.
 
If we consider physical paging as a special kind of overflow fragmentation, we should be able to specify a ::nth-page() pseudo class that applies on the :root element in a similar fashion to how :nth-fragment would apply to the overflow fragment spec.
 
That requires some more work, however, since the overflow fragments spec is still in its infancy right now.
