The main downside to this way is when they use spans for bold and italic so I've taken to looking for that and adding their class to my .bold and and .italic.
Using Diaps Toolbag plugin, it's trivial to convert bold/italic spans to <b> and <i>. I've gotten rather good at fixing sloppy eBooks. What I really cannot stand is how the publisher tries to make the eBook look like the pBook and it's a fail. It doesn't work.
