It is possible I scrambled some default config; however, if I did, it only affects things from ADE, and not kepubs from calibre.

Scrambling the config for this is pretty hard. For most of the config file, if the options don't make sense, defaults are used. And if you don't like the settings you have, just edit the config file and remove the appropriate section, or remove the config file completely.

For something like what you describe, it is either something in the book blocking it, or something failed in the firmware. If it works after a restart, then it is probably a failure. In that case, there might be a stack log file in the .kobo directory for the error. If so, we can give it to Kobo to help work out what went wrong. If it is there, the file name is "stack_nn.log" where "nn" will be two digits.

In playing with a kepub loaded by calibre just now, I noticed when I hit "get configuration" it resets the font to the first one in the list. My default font is a side loaded one, probably Linux Libertine or something, although I usually use Georgia (or publisher default) on ADE books.

Would you consider that a bug?

I don't do any handling for sideloaded fonts, so no, it isn't a bug. It's a deficiency

I'll have to think about how to handle that. I don't really want to read all the fonts on the device to get the names. I might be lazy and if the config file or database have non-default names add those to the list as I find them. Or might be good and fetch the names from the font files. Actually, that probably is easy as the file names have to match the internal names. That means I just read the file names, strip off the bold/italic etc and I should have the right names. I'll try and add this sometime during the week.
