I'd suspect the only place we are going to find the kobo-android.css stylesheet is in ebooks downloaded from Kobo's site in their kepub format. So far my experiments in removing/modifying the file have had some very odd results and caused me to spend quite a bit of time perusing the differences between epub3 and epub2 courtesy of the idpf.org website (http://www.idpf.org/epub/30/spec/epub30-changes.html documentation.

So far all 9 of the kobo-android.css stylesheets I've run into have not been encrypted. I don't know is this is a limitation of Kobo's DRM scheme or a decision on their part to allow modifying css stylesheets without having to decrypt and re-encrypt the files. The expletive deleted Adobe page-template.xpgt files are encrypted though removing them seems to have had minimal noticeable effects.
