As I understand it, this version breaks the ability to de-drm, correct?
No idea, I don't use my eink Kindles for de-DRMing my Amazon books.

I don't know about kfx, but converting to azw3 still works as it always has. You can use custom fonts with azw3. Moreover, you can use custom font sizes with azw3 (those never worked with kfx).
