You've worked out exactly what goes into each column of the contents table? For each book format? And exactly what to do about the table of comments? And how to handle the changes that have happened with different firmware versions?

From my experience, it wasn't reliable. I could do it, but frequently the book would get imported anyway. The creator of the KoboTouchExtended driver tried as well. We both decided it wasn't worth the hassle. I probably know more about it now then when I first tried, but, again, I just don't think there is enough gain to make it worth the effort.
