I think that's overspecifying it. I scan directly to DJVU, splitting the pages only in the conversion to PNGs for ABBYY. You get some advantage taking the unsplit scans, since some number of problems with the scans involves missplit pages. I would have no problem converting the split pages to DJVU. But it takes a lot more effort to renumber all the pages, especially given the fact that illustrations aren't always numbered as part of the overall page numbers and the fact that the older books and reprints of older books can lack page numbers, have multiple page number systems or have inconsistent numbering systems. And really, why is the extra effort worth it? Most of our etexts don't have page numbers to make it make a difference for errata, and for the rare times that someone will be looking for something in the images by page number, it's not hard to search for the right page number manually, just like you would with a book.
