Fair warning in advance: Whatever you go with, input is going to be a major PITA. There's a reason almost nothing out there handles all the corner-cases properly, except for the stock Qt QPA, which we can't use, and Plato. KOReader is a close second, and that mainly because it forgoes hardware rotation handling (and what little it deals with on that front is relegated to FBInk via fbdepth), which avoids a nice chunk of the potential issues.
(Purely coincidental example: https://github.com/llandsmeer/inkvt/pull/14)

Out of curiosity, what's the hangup with FBInk?
The hangup with fbink is that I can't see how to do things beyond text and already stored images with it, although I'm probably being dumb.
