BTW:

I am working on proof of concept where we replace mobi_input.py with a new version that tries to load classes from the mobi_unpack_v042_plugin.zip and if it succeeds it invokes the epub plugin and if not it does what it used to do.

This requires a new interface class within mobi_unpack.py to work well with calibre approach to using "streams" but it should work.

I will debug it and see if I can get it working and if so, someone can decide if we want to include it in the next release or not as a fill in until actual support becomes available.
