I've never before read of any "no one-letter words at the end of lines" rule, and three random paperbacks I just looked at don't seem to have, either. But the hard-space method could let me cater to it if desired, just as more extensive work to soft-hyphenate long words could let me get smooth justification even at the large font size I use. So in theory an eBookwise could follow every rule cited.

I pretty much do what you do. I only add soft-hypens when I notice that the large font doesn't flow as well as I might like, particularly in a table (although sometimes I just force the small font for a table). Have you get everything automated?
