I'm a bit hesitant to go through my entire library and remove the font-family without understanding the problem better.

Sometimes, the font-family attribute is only for small parts of the book's text (titles, notes, it depends what styles it's defined in and what styles are used for the book's main text), in this case, you can still change the font for most of the text.
However, I agree that an option to override font-family defined in EPUB would be really useful.
Just do the changes on copies of your books. The only real problem is that if some of your EPUBs require a specific font for special characters (not available in west-european charsets) and are embedding this font, changing the font-familly will make them unreadable.
