Asked and answered over the course of this thread. I'm frankly just not interested enough in the bulk unpacking of Kindle books to make the modifications to the plugin that would be necessary to accomplish it. Someone else will have to take up that cause.

Check out the utilities.py script. Specifically, the mobiProcessor class... and where it calls the MobiHeaderLight class. That's where the bulk of the work is done to determine what kind of Kindlebook it is.
And for what it's worth, this plugin and the htmlz format don't have a thing to do with each other. And it can't do anything with the topaz format other than tell you that a certain book is IN the topaz format.
Also, I have another "What's my MOBI?" python script that will tell you what's under the hood of most MOBI, PRC and the various other Kindlebook type ebook formats. Will work on individual files or entire folders/subfolders.
