I began using FBReader in a C language version that ran on Windows and Linux. Like the tablet version, it handled ePub, Mobi, and FB2 among other things "native", so I mostly didn't care what format a book was in. A special plus for me was that it handled books in the format used by the Plucker offline HTML viewer for PalmOS device. I have about 4,000 files I converted from HTML to Plucker to read on my Palm, and it was nice to be able to read them on something besides my PDA. It didn't (and doesn't) handle DRM, but I don't get stuff encumbered with DRM and don't care.
The Android version is a port to Java, and has a similar feature set. (It doesn't handle Plucker files, alas.) And it can handle PDF, DjVu, and CBR/CBZ files via plugins. (The Premium version builds in PDF support.) It's highly configurable and works well, but I've seen it have problems with large libraries. (The author has posted several versions intended to fix those issues, but they still bite me.)

I had the impression that you didn't like having everything ending up \ebooks rather than in author (or author_sort) directories, that's what I was trying to help with.

That is exactly my problem. But your observations, while accurate, aren't part of the issue I'm having. I just want Calibre to replicate the directory structure on the card in the tablet that it used in the main library. ASCIIfication is fine by me, and not a factor in what I'm seeing.
I think FizzyWater is on to something, and it's what I'll be looking at next.
