Why would the creators of EPUB even ask for something bizarre like that? There should be a mimetype file in there, and the EPUB validator should find it regardless of what physical order it has in the zip/epub file. Can someone help me understand?
Is Flightcrew free?

Zip the mimetype first by itself uncompressed and then add the other items. The reason they wanted it that way is so the file could be identified as to filetype without having to unzip it using, for example, the Unix file command.
Flightcrew is a free program, part of Sigil.
Also try "BookId" with caps in the place.
