I am glad I've poked deeper into the editor's capabilities, though. Would like it if "merge stylesheets" would/could automatically move all @-rules to the top of the merged file, or would allow you to specify file sequence within the merged document (e.g. "append A to B and save under the name A" - the current interface forces you to call the file B) - but, that said, it's a fairly minor pain that's easily remedied. The ability to multiply all font sizes by a given constant (as when a publisher decides that the main text of the book should be 0.83em instead of 1em, and scales everything else accordingly) more than makes up for that small hassle, even if I'd prefer it if said multiplication allowed me to say "truncate and round off after N decimal places." Again, relatively painless to fix afterward.
As far as the cover goes what you want to do can be done with a saved Regex-Function.
