What we need (IMHO) are options in the reading software to specify indents/no indents, & paragraph spaces (how wide) or none. So if an eBook was made properly, the software could be set how it's wanted to look. That would be a major step forward. Also, we need no margins so we can set the margins as we want. No line height unless there is a need and we can set as we want as well. Basically, most of the formatting could be set a certain way unless there's a need otherwise and set as we want.
