Either that of make a standalone strip kf8 utility.

Yes that is easily done.

BTW, does the new mobi_unpacker.py actually work with your stripped mobi8 files or does it need to be fixed to properly unpack them.

No but all it has to do is test version==8 in record 0 and if true proceed immediately to the kf8 code (skipping the mobi7 code). Edit: well there's a bit more to it since the images etc, are in the kf8 segment but it's still easy.
Maybe what I'll do is update mobiunpack to do both--create standalone mobi7 and mobi8 files for combo files and properly handle mobi8-only files.
