That was a prime example. No, I'm not asking for anything fancy, just elementary book typography with freedom from ill-conceived overrides. In other words, what we're not getting from the Kindle.
I would also like not to have added space between indented paragraphs. Respect for nonbreaking spaces. I can dream about nonbreaking hyphens too. I discuss some of these on my blog, and more in my books.
By the way, I just posted on my blog about problems related to JPEG XR, the new graphics format for KFX.
