Why would you rename .kepub.epub to .kepub? The kepub file in kobo device is .kepub.epub.

Do you think this can be done?
I believe this can be done.
1. easily done like you said
2. You just convert all your epub books in you calibre library to .kepub.epub using kepubify. (You just need to find the directory for Calibre library, my books are in multiples subdirs inside of one big dir, I don't know kepubify supports subdir or not).
3. If the files contain the same metadata, they will be put into one single entry in Calibre library with multiple formats, you can try several files in Calibre libbrary and then do it for all your books if that is OK.
