There is only one kind of EPUB3, and it has already "taken off." All EPUB3 books are "true" EPUB3s. And once again... no. There is no such thing as an EPUB3 "wrapper." You're showing your ignorance by suggesting there is. EPUB2 must be converted to EPUB3. Not wrapped. Whether there's any multimedia or not, EPUB3 is a different beast altogether. Different html version, different css version, different opf specifications, different metadata, and different structure. You CANNOT take an EPUB2, slip a sweater on it and call it an EPUB3.

When you go to respond to this in a week or so, please consider just accepting the fact that you're woefully uninformed in this area.
