they have introduced a wrinkle that the Kindle depends on for the "Sections & Articles" view and the BACK button to work correctly, but that is not necessary for a fully MOBI-compliant reader to work properly.

I suspect this is the case indeed.

I emailed Marco about how he does his Kindle formatting for Instapaper, and he wouldn't tell me, claiming he didn't want to "irritate Amazon." If he is using kindlegen, I'd be interested in how he is getting it to generate periodical fomats--I haven't been able to figure out how to make it do that. Any clues?

This is a speculation but I guess that Marco is using Amazon/Mobipocket tools indeed - Instapaper was reported to work with the new layout a day after the very first 3.1 candidate was released - not impossible but rather unlikely that he would have noticed and reverse-engineered the issue within a day. However, I did a quick search for mobigen periodicals generation and did not find anything either. Although I am still on 3.0.3 and not planning to upgrade to 3.1 soon, so this issue has low priority for me at the moment...
