My 2 cents on the css removal features - I think there are a couple things that could be both feasible and recommended. This plugin has led me to a crusade to remove all the garbage margins from my epubs, and I'm learned that in some cases margins I've been blaming on adobe xpgt are actually css margins. In the examples I've looked at these are easy to remove programmatically - basically just parse the css and look for any margins on body or @page, and delete/zero these. Margins on any other element could potentially be specific, but margins on body and @page are safe to delete wholesale.
I would LOVE this, although it would be even better if the margins could be customized (i.e., set all book margins to X).

I just opened an epub the other day where the indie author or whoever formatted their book for them set the margins at what seems to be half an inch on either side. A whole inch of white space running down my reader for the entire book! I like a little margin so that the shade of the bezel isn't obstructing the text, but this is nonsense.
