Marvin is $2.99 - less than 20 minutes of minimum wage work or 1/166th the cost of the cheapest iPad you can buy. Why anyone should "withhold" their three bucks over one detail (however "important")...

No such luck. You saw the original thread and that's about as far as it went (research). Kris never implemented it.

As was hinted at previously, Kris was the victim of autocorrect. The correct site is marvinapp.com.

Kris - I think Moon+ does something a little different. It will use the EPUB3 extension if it's there but I think it also will use a heuristic on EPUB2 files.

Thanks, Koval. I'm assuming it was bug in the 1.0.4 iOS Reader App plugin or something in 0.9.40. If I ran those two together, Calibre crashed every few hours - if I reverted to 0.9.39, it was rock...
