At the moment I
  1. Remove <whatever>.epub
  2. Save <whatever>.original.epub to the desktop
  3. Remove <whatever>.original.epub
  4. Rename <whatever>.original_epub to <whatever>.epub on the desktop
  5. Drag/Drop <whatever>.epub from the desktop into the Book Details panel
  6. Delete <whatever>.epub from the desktop
It works, but... "There must be an easier way." methinks.

It's a bad idea to do an ePub > ePub conversion just to get an original_ePub before doing a Tweak eBook. It would be best to open original location, make a copy, do your Tweak and if it's OK, delete the copy.

By doing an ePub > ePub conversion, you are unnecessarily changing the code before you do your Tweak.
