Yes, he does accept submissions either as patch files or pull requests. See
https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/develop.html for more information.
What I have seen over my 8 years of working with Kovid is that he is truly happy to accept submissions. He does review for technical correctness and conformance with calibre's architecture, and for "suitability" with current and future calibre. He isn't shy about telling you what he thinks and he will work with you to "fix" things he thinks need changing. He does like it if you will stay around to fix things in your changes should the need arise.
If you are serious then I suggest you open an enhancement request at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/calibre, describing what you want to implement. Kovid will tell you at that point if he has any requirements such as being implemented in the GUI and on the command line, where the option is set, and error handling. This could save both of you some time.
