It's quite possible that rooting the PRS-T1 and using one of the other epub readers (e.g. CoolReader, FBReader) is a different solution to the problem. However, not everyone will be confident enough to go this way. I have previous experience using FBReader because it is one of the 2 defaults on my PocketBook 360 but I hated it because it ignores most of the epub's css styling - other people love it for exactly the same reason
Like you, I hope one of the technical gurus will take an interest in solving the T1 custom fonts problem at some point, but until then will have to make do with physically embedding fonts in each and every epub to get custom fonts with all Bold and Italics intact.
