And CSS and HTML4.0 is allowed in the lit format?

This is the main thing I'm hoping to achieve with oeb2mobi -- leverage full CSS parsing to preserve as much formatting as Mobipocket's markup language allows. I've already something roughly equivalent to Mobiperl's html2mobi, so now for the hard part .
My main interest with MobiPerl was to get the Mobi header correct so I really did not put in so much effort into the html2mobi program. Using oeb as the format to convert from seems to me the correct thing to do.
