- I have no idea what "iTunes spoor" is?
epub TOC: How about just checking for the existence of a toc.ncx of at least 1000(?) bytes? That sidesteps the issue of whether or not the TOC is any good, but does require it to have a few entries.

calibre bookmarks: I think that can just be deleted with no ill effects -- at least that's what I've done by hand and it hasn't bit me yet
(file is \META-INF\calibre_bookmarks.txt)

iTunes $#*% : can also just be deleted -- Apple has the effrontery to stick this file not just in its copy of the epub, but in the original source epub -- so if you take a nice clean epub, and test copy it into iTunes to see how it looks, suddenly your original epub is no longer a valid archive ....
(file is \iTunesMetadata.plist) (I think)


And again, thanks, your plugins are great!
