Is this in 4.16.13337? Or before? The firmware I have seem to be fine.

P.S. One pet peeve of mine is the books with a whole file just for the title of the chapter, and with the content in another file, not in the TOC, but referenced using the spine.
For a book chapter, I would generally agree. I've seen a couple of books where I agreed with it. But, I'd probably add a ToC entry for the actual text.

I partly disagree with this, but only with regards to fiction. I believe publishers get too much freedom with EPUB, and tend to abuse it (especially for fiction). The font overriding wars is an example of this, and using divs for everything and using CSS to make it online, increase the font size, look like a paragraph, and so on.
The body font I agree with. It would be nice to be able control that separately to fonts used elsewhere. My problem with Jon's campaign is that I see no reason to cram everything together. A few extra page turns per book doesn't hurt. And I like a little style in the books.
