I want to know if I purchase an epub that specifies a non-embedded monospace font, the monospaced font will be used (with no modifications needed).

Yes, it is a bug that monospace does not work. Even if it was that simple to just load a monospace font with a specific name to fonts, there are many people who would not know to do it.
The reason it's a bug is because a monospace font is part of ADE (RMSDK) and Kobo has chosen to leave this out. This means that monospace does not work when it should work. I don't know of any other RMSDK (ADE) that does not work with monospace out of the box. If it was not part of RMSDK, then fair enough, it is and Kobo changed it so monospace does not work.
