I don't think it works quite like you may think. For example, the same links, which do work correctly, which define how font-family:sans-serif should be rendered (standard epubs) are:
res:///fonts/normal/Avenir
res:///fonts/bold/Avenir
res:///fonts/italic/Avenir
res:///fonts/bolditalic/Avenir

I'm loathe to volunteer much more in case I divert you from having a new and better "good idea" no-one else has tried yet

You probably know this already, but there is already a kobopatch which fixes the incorrect monospace stuff but, because it's hacking, not everyone wants to use it. A solution which could be achieved just by copying files to the "right place" may be more acceptable to more people.
