Just the way CSS works. (in conjunction with ADE, which is used by Kobo to display epubs, and which Kobo can only modify in limited ways, per licensing agreements with Adobe.)

It makes perfect sense that Kobo silently appends body {attributes} into an e-book CSS (per user preferences) and ADE uses those as it should to display the books. However, if the body has a class, the values of body.class would then take precedence.

Features are not bugs, even if you don't want them and would rather be without, it's still working as designed. Whether or not this particular idea is bad... I'll leave to the jury. I already said my piece on that.
