I don't want to have to massage every eBook through Calibre or edit it in Sigil to get the overrides that any intelligently written renderer should provide. I'm the fricken user, I paid for the privilege, I should not be required to become an eBook renovation expert for the time it takes to code a settings page or dialog and insert the appropriate tests and switches into the code. What are we paying for if not convenience and options? This is hardly brain surgery on the code end unless it is the most convoluted piece of dreck ever coded. Even so, it should be possible.
Some company, I hope it could be Kobo, will eventually realize that giving the user options is a HUGE selling point. I thought they knew that when they offered the font related options that they do, but apparently they are not interested in further buttressing their position.
