Given that Amazon seems to sell about 65 percent of e-books (though perhaps that stat is only for the US), I hardly think that epub is dominant.
Or perhaps you regard KF8 as epub-under-the-hood?
(Indeed, with the advent of KFX, the e-publishing world seems to be ever more Zon-centric.)
I will however certainly yield to your point about poetry. But perhaps that failure is less about epub than about e-books. Short of switching to fixed format, there doesn't seem to be any way for a digital product to curtsy to poets who think in terms of visual appearance on the page.
