If I wrote a text editor that always changed the text entered in lowercase to uppercase and uppercase to lowercase, that would be stupid and annoying but if it was my intention, it is NOT a bug.
It is a matter of intent. If it operates as intended, it is not a bug. If it does not operate as intended, it is a bug.
Except in the case where the bug is useful, then it is called "an undocumented feature"  |
ADE is not meant to ignore font-family put in the body CSS code. So given that, it is a bug. Even though Kobo may have doe it on purpose, it is still a bug given your logic. The Adobe devs programed ADE to work the way it should and Kobo changing core functionality means that some ePub won't work properly. This is a bug in Kobo's ADE and if it's not a bug, then is a mistake that needs correcting. Either way, it's wrong and should be fixed.
