I don't think what I am trying to do has anything to do with epub needing to mature. It has to do with the reading/rendering end of things. As far as I can tell, everything I am trying to do with CSS should be supported by the epub spec. As I said, Lector displays everything fine, DE does not. Thus, my questions about DE (hopefully to be answered by someone who actually knows something about DE).

I realize you were trying to be helpful, but telling me that one of the two things I want to do can be done in LRF doesn't help at all. I am trying to do this in epub, not LRF. This is not about trying to do things with an existing, proprietary format. It is about trying to see what can be accomplished in the new epub format. Besides, since epub will be supported on the Sony 550 (and maybe the 500) via DE, these issues will affect a lot of Sony owners as well.
