The "other."-prefixed references without titles I'm actually dropping in the conversion code. I didn't think of just including them without titles -- if Mobipocket Desktop just ignores them then that's probably the most sensible thing to do.
Ah, OK... I forgot there was a "guide" in ePUB too (I was talking about the guide in the mobi version). Since I don't have a real ePUB reader (and I don't know if there is any one that supports the guide), there are some things I just added without being quite sure how they are supposed to work.

As for the "text" item in the ePUB guide (and "other.ms-firstpage" in the mobi), I added them without titles in the hope that some readins software would use them in a way similar to the Cybook's "Start Reading", but I didn't really wanted to have some link with a fixed name there. You can of course do as you like with them, this is just an explanation of why I do that
