I agree, I want ebooks to look the way I want too. In my mind there is no reason why the device couldn't modify the stylesheet settings. If you want to modify yours on your computer, then great, you would select "Use ebook style" on your device. But for those who don't want to do any pre-processing, the settings should be able to be configured by the device. Some of them can be modified presently, why not more of them? One of the biggest reasons that I use an ereader is because I want to modify the display to my liking. So why should the ereader restrict this in any way? One of the reasons I chose Kobo was because it gives the greatest flexibility in this, and the more flexibility that is added will make it even better.
