I don't think I've ever seen a book do that. It seems extremely irritating.
I've rarely seen it in monographs--once in a great while (no sample titles off the top of my head). Where I have seen it, repeatedly, is in commentaries on Classical texts or in "critical editions" of literary works with commentaries included along with the text.
