Thank you for your example! I am in the process of switching to memoir class myself but since I do not use latex directly but convert texts in docbook format using dblatex, it is a little tricky. The problem is memoir defines a lot of functionality provided by other packages (which dblatex includes in its output tex file) so I have to deal with all the packages on a case by case basis. I will definitely use ideas from your example.
Another thing, I chose not to use xelatex but stick to pdflatex. The main reason is xelatex does not support microtypography enhancements (microtype package) which is really noticeable on kindle's small pages.
