Everything is fine when the EPUB file is opened with the already existing "com.apple.ibooks.display-options.xml" in the META-INF folder. We see it in Misc, but the file is actually in the correct folder.
There is a special exception in the code for this file:
ImportEPUB::AddNonStandardAppleXML()
If we use the AddiBooksXML plugin, everything is fine too.
The problem is only adding "com.apple.ibooks.display-options.xml" via the "Add File" function.

In my newest build standard epub tests ignore it when ibooks .XML file is in Misc folder, though of course it shouldn't be there.
Hmmm ...
Apart from ignoring the addition of such a file, I see other solutions here:
a) detection of the file name during adding and if equal "com.apple.ibooks.display-options.xml", then use an exceptional procedure and move the file directly to the META-INF folder.
b) after detecting exactly such file name during adding, displaying a message suggesting to use the "AddiBooksXML" plugin.
