Personally I think Kobos already allow some reasonable alternatives: - Read books as epub if you prefer a light-handed approach to style overriding.
- Use KoReader if you're looking for a heavy-handed 'Monty Python foot' approach to overriding all styles.
- Read books as kepub if you want something in the middle.
- Add in Kobo patching and you have more fine-tuning of options 1 and 3

Personally, I don't think it's reasonable to expect users to hack their e-readers or edit ebooks to get formatting that suits them.
I've barely used my Glo HD so not familiar with customization options yet. I've only used KOReader on the Kindle and from my short usage, KOReader seems overly complicated (for now, I prefer the default Kindle reader). Perhaps KOReader works better on the Kobo.
Smaller app developers can do the following. Why not Amazon, B&N and Kobo?
