That way the publisher gets a chance to fix things on their own initiative and a polite reason to do so without being confronted by an Amazon-relayed complaint that might cause them to yank the book from sale in the meantime.

Hmm, it's a thought. Mind you, we're talking about ū as well as ō (the great tea master Sen no Rikyū gets mentioned a lot), not to mention capital-macron combos in placenames like Ōsaka.
I'll take another boo at the sample and see whether it's doable. Thanks!
