I agree 100% that Sigil should remain strictly focused on compliant ePubs and shouldn't even
consider the needs of kindlegen. I also agree that any complaints about the difficulties/quirks/deficiencies of the mobi/kf8 building process should be directed toward Amazon... not towards the maintainers of programs whose final product happens to be accepted as source material for Amazon's program.
However... to suggest that people shouldn't even be
using Sigil in their mobi creation process may be a tad over the top. I use Sigil all the time to create quality ePubs AND mobis (in fact, it just got easier to do so). I'm just not going to complain to Sigil maintainers when Amazon changes the requirements of kindlegen. I'm just going to adjust my process accordingly.
