Submitted for consideration:
"Do you prefer user-defined presentation settings to publisher choices?"

While it is an interesting and *worthwhile* exercise I think there is the danger that publishers, already operating under the dated assumption that presentation style should be set at the top of the product chain, will simply hardwire the lowest-common denominator settings from the survey. For print books top-down presentation control was unavoidable. For ebooks it properly belongs at the end of the chain, in the hands of the customer. Even if, yes, they choose to go with Comic Book sans.
Their money, their eyeballs, their ebook.
We're not talking movies, where the director's vision rules.

So yes, let's see how readers like their ebooks formatted, but let's not assume that a consensus choice, even if it exists, can be/should be deployed en-masse.

Me, I'd rather see the publishers focus on finding quality content and proofing it before shipping it out.
