I do all my book editing in the calibre editor. I've probably done as much regex there as anywhere else.

It's an extreme view from someone that's not seriously used Pearl.
You might feel the same about Forth or Prolog.
Since I'm getting source in docx or odt, it wouldn't make sense to edit in Calibre. If I get a PD book that just needs some CSS/HTML changes I might edit in Calibre. If it's been very badly proofed from a scan of an ancient copy, or really stupid formatting/lack of format of headings, images, index etc I might export as RTF and Save As odt, then actually create/edit styles based on what I know works.
If I was only "fixing" epubs I'd probably edit in Calibre.
