- replace cover w/same image, or set semantics
- remove justification
- if base text isn't 100%/1em, change and scale other styles
- remove font-family from body text styles
- remove line-height from non-headers
- convert to EPUB3 if not yet, change page # tags (e.g. if specified as anchor) to EPUB3, run pagelist plugin
- delete common fonts such as LinLibertine, Charis, etc.
- to make navigation easier for larger books, add to h2+ headers link back to chapter id in html toc
- if no html toc, create - some option to add to NAV/TCX if not there, like hold down alt/option w/menu selection?
possibly more I can't think of.
For some of that, unsure if asked before. Could be some amount of work. Possibly far off as maybe some future feature? As one can modify styles in some web inspector, some style panel where one could easily add or remove attributes to style at cursor point, oh would be so nice.

Ok, but no offense, this doesn’t have much to do with what I said or suggested. I’m not giving you a hard time, just don’t want my idea to get buried. I’m not proposing a change to the automation features and I don’t think what I’m saying has much to do with the way automation features are implemented. More of an addition to find/replace. A way to easily do a bunch of stuff to one book, not the same thing over and over again to a bunch of books.
