8. Possibly remove BookView completely at this point since it seems to cause more issues than it is worth (no firm decision on this one way or the other)

It is an idea that has certainly gone through many heads!
Without denying the fact that BV reassures many new users (and can be useful sometimes, but also misleading...), I think the first crucial decision to take in the future development of Sigil is: what can simplify software maintenance ? And if some features like BV have to be sacrificed to achieve this result, it is a good tradeoff.
After all, older versions will always have this feature and the Preview pane is working.
In short, imho, I would put option 8 first.
