I doubt if the ability to work on unzipped content is ever going to be an integral part of Sigil, quite frankly. It's an epub editor--and epubs are zipped. There are plenty of other editors that will easily allow anyone to manipulate unzipped html/css/xml source files.

Sigil is much better add editing ePub source files than a generic editor! But I also want the ePub files to be unzipped while I work on them as it much better fits my workflow. Other EPUB tools like epubcheck and Readium already work with unzipped files, so it is not a completely novel approach.
If I understand well, the common point in your replies is that the best solution is to come up with a plugin/procedure to keep the zipped ePub, edited by Readium, in synch with an unzipped version that can be tracked in source control?
I’ll definitely look into the plugin API. is this forum post the best starting point
