That's not really a format issue so much as an "implementation" issue -- the font Sony bundled just has more glyphs than the one Adobe bundled. Is the @font-face rule with a 'res://' src insufficient for you, or would you like to see specific support for that? Will embedding a font in each book still be not an answer once Calibre has support for it and can just embed your default font selections automatically?

and the speed of intra-document links.

I can see how this might be an issue, as Adobe doesn't seem to cache any pagination information to help it jump into a flow more easily. I admit that I'm not sure what could be done here on Calibre's part.

I do not deny that EPUB is a better format and these issues will likely be fixed in the future, but as it is now, LRF is still the more usable of the two.

Well then lets make EPUB more usable :-). I'd much much much rather put time into EPUB usability improvements than fixes to the all-but-dead LRF generator.
