FBReader:

Respects hard page breaks, centred text, font changes, etc, but (a killer) ignores first-line text indents .

OnyxReader:

The best of the bunch. Respects all formatting, but pictures blow up with font size and overflow the page.

Cool Reader:

Centred text is not centred. Italics are ignored. Page breaks are shown properly.

The only half-way decent reader among them is OnyxReader, to my mind.
How about giving Koreader a try, it is working great on my Android tablet and on my AuraHD, but it is not working well for some Android users. One thing though, much of what you mention can be adjusted and impacted by various rendering and zoom settings within Koreader.
