There is also an @page entry that I trimmed the margins out of so that they wouldn't get in the way of a good ePUB.
You still haven't said what do you want Sigil to do with this.

If you want Sigil to remove the various junk with which Word fills the exported HTML, then that's already planned. Tidy has some nice flags for this and I'll be extending that behavior too. This would be available through a dialog that pops up on import and asks the user to check importing options like "Remove excessive Word markup" or whatever.

If this is what you want, add it to the tracker so I don't forget. But bear in mind that this is not high on my list of priorities because there are more important things to implement first.
