While I understand your point, letting the user choose his/her preferred fonts, colours, etc. should be a feature of every app, although they can rely on system-wide settings.

While it's not a reading app, the book view should serve as a previewer (or otherwise, why is it there at all?), and changing the font could be useful in some cases.

If you don't want to implement a preferences dialog with all sorts of things (book view font among them), maybe you could just set some "default css" that is applied only to book view, and is not included in the ePUB.
