Your idea may or may not have merit but this doesn't belong in the calibre thread.

This isn't a problem its a feature, read this sticky post.

I don't believe calibre supports uPub created documents.

I have a couple of ideas, assuming you meant ePub.

1. Install calibre and use only the command line interface to accomplish what you want.

2. If you must spam your genius idea, please pick a more appropriate forum to do it in. This thread is only tangentially related to calibre.
