Not an answer to your question, but the force of "physical" strikes 
me as irrelevant in two ways. Firstly, all gismu's senses are
susceptible to metaphorical extension (e.g. from a physical page
to a nonphysical page). Secondly, in what way is a webpage an
analogue of a physical page? A 'nonphysical' analogue of a paper
page would be a screenful of text (i.e. the 'page' of PageUp and
PageDown), i.e. a chunk delimited by the nature of the medium
rather than of the content. A webpage is a kind of document rather
than a kind of page.

Forgive my posting these comments to this forum, but I didn't see
where the original discussion was taking place.
