If @skillachie & his team can improve BookFusion so that it becomes a truly great e-reader app, and then if they can make BookFusion available on e-ink devices, that would be fantastic.
My trouble is that I currently possess a PocketBook, which is not Android but Linux.
So I guess BookFusion developers would need to approach the PocketBook team in Switzerland and make a special arrangement, so that it becomes possible to install BookFusion on PocketBooks. KOReader has made it possible, so BookFusion could, too, if they find this worthwhile.
You know, only last year, PocketBook released their first truly advanced color e-ink device, the PocketBook 741 InkPad Color:

We plan to make optimizations for e-ink Android based devices.
Unfortunately, we think our time would be better spent working with Android e-ink providers, since most do not have the cross platform based solution and it would be mutually beneficial. This is less likely with PocketBook.
In anycase, a core focus will be on Android based e-inks once we finish the Android refresh.

Now, finally to make good on my promise to @skillachie, here is my list of current BookFusion issues/feature requests, ordered by priority as I perceive it.
Only the first 4 items on this list, @skillachie, are "show-stoppers" for me. But I'd hate to miss some of the other features listed below them, which have been available in Moon+ Reader and/or Marvin for many years.
CURRENT BOOKFUSION ISSUES/FEATURE REQUESTS
ORDERED BY PRIORITY
- custom background textures (unlimited savable themes; on-the-fly fast switching) must-have
- stop converting highlights to plain-text upon export must-have
- freehand-drawing/annotation of images-only PDF files must-have
- custom fonts must-have
- search within book must-have
- book files information (number of words/characters; file size in KB/MB; estimated time to read, etc.) must-have

Thank you for sharing this list. We should be able to address these within the next 12 months.
I must say #5 is basic and is already supported not sure how you missed the search icon but I will address this with screenshots in another post.
book files information - You can see the file size, file type from this list from just the book cover. The only thing not displayed on the cover is the estimated time to read
