Well, to begin with, it's not sticky from book to book it's only sticky within a book. For those of us who read downloaded fanfic in epub format on our mobile devices, this can mean a "book" of anywhere from 500 to 150,000 words. If I'm reading a slew of short stories, having to go through and "push a few buttons" every single time (i.e., every five to ten minutes) is very annoying.
It doesn't make sense to me that Marvin doesn't have a sticky default for font size that spans
all books (publisher settings that override it notwithstanding).
And for the record, I'm using the FFDL plugin for Calibre to download and convert fanfic. I've checked (using Sigil) the epubs it creates and the files have no specific font/font size settings, so Marvin is obviously using its own default to display these particular epubs. All I want is to have control over those default settings.
