Mobipocket ain't approved by the keepers of the standards
Let us have Adobe dictate - I would be against Epub just on general principles only for that since for me Adobe is considerably lower than Microsoft not to speak of Amazon on the trust scale - leaving aside that it seems to be as end-user friendly as opf
Though I do not worry overmuch about Epub - it will at best remain a pre-package format like opf, not an end user one like mobi, and it may not get there since as long as mobi uses opf, lit uses opf...
