And any annotations stored will not be redisplayed in the book. The plugins add the spans to the epubs. The plugin also adds some extra divs and CSS that the kepub ereader expects and helps with the way it does the formatting.

@davidfor! I've been trying to understand the difference between epub and kepub for a while, and now it's finally clear
And thanks to everyone for your input on tinkering and patching.
