Some devices are friendlier, for instance Kobo eReaders; others this data is accessible only when the device has been jail broken.

Note, on the Kindle, the data is easily accessible as well (no jailbreak required). Problem is reverse engineering the mbp1 (mobi), azw3r (azw3) and yjr (kfx) files that the Kindle uses and converting them to a universal format (which as you mentioned does not exist).
Mind, for mobi and azw3, the offsets used for bookmarks and highlights appear to be Location * 150 (so maybe word count?).
*sigh* Really wish Calibre’s built-in viewer would add support for highlights soon.
