So...

1. ToC (ncx) support.
I'm not sure what you mean. Marvin uses the ncx to generate the TOC.

Is there a way to go back to the beginning of an ePub without having to flip pages to get there?
You can drag the scrubbing tool at the bottom all the way to the left.

I have more suggestions...

Quote:
1. In the font section, please allow the user deigned fonts for serif, sans-serif, and monospace. I have a book I am reading that uses sans-serif and they get overridden at present. The CSS code is "font-family: sans-serif". They are coming out as serif because of the chosen body font.
Interesting. I'll post my ideas for doing this on this thread before working on it to make sure it is what everyone is expecting.

2. The gestures that allow us to go back/forward should go to the beginning of the chapter not to the last page and then onto the chapter's first page.
The problem with this is that many people, prefer the current behaviour and many people prefer what you're suggesting. Will try and make gestures a bit more customisable.

Quote:
Also, make gesturing to goto bookmarks separate from chapters.
Definitely. Very useful.

3. I have figured out how to get true smallcaps as long as you have them for a given font. I have a smallcaps version of Charis SIL and what could be done is to have the CSS define "font-family: monospace" or "sans-serif" and in the font selector, select the smallcaps font for monospace or sans-serif and it's a go.
I'm not sure I'm following. Could you elaborate?
