Hi Quoth! Nice to hear from you!
Calibre as focus is unfortunately set in stone at this point. My hope with this project is that the results of my work would actually be of use, as such I reached out to a FOSS forum asking which programs they saw needed improvements, of which Calibre was a prime candidate. I doubt for profit companies with proprietary software would care much with whatever I come up with. Signal might not be part of that crowd, but they still have a larger userbase and therefore more likely to already have people working on UX for them.

This type of response is excellent. This is the kind of insight I need, thank you. But it also demonstrates why I prefer a face-to-face interview. The flow of conversation would make it a lot easier in a spoken format. But I'm thankful for your feedback nonetheless.
