Ok, I'm a newbie with eReaders and didn't now how poor their CSS compatibility is. Thanks for correcting me.

Is there a large data table (like for internet brower CSS compatibility) for eReaders and CSS selectors, properties, values?

That would help to guide creators or cleaners of epubs, which CSS could be used without letting a lot users standing in the rain.

Not at all.
I have a deep respect to all book designer, typographs who work with dedication and expertise.
I like to see their suggestions for a book layout as a reader.
When I like it, will enjoy to read the book in the suggested layout.

Without any question.

But my point of view for this thread was different.

For a valid xml document RegEx is not the best. It's more elegant to use a tool, which interpretes the tree.
