Given the flexibility of the medium, perhaps we should make the electronic versions as simple as possible, format-wise; allowing the reader to set their preferred style, etc except where a specific style is necessary and such.

Personally, I'd just as soon stick to pain old text-oriented word processing and none of that object-oriented business that seems to be a major driver behind all this excess formatting craze.
Exactly - for regular fiction anyway. Non fiction and poetry will have different needs, but it should be easy for me to read fiction the way I want to.
