Indeed, but it's hardly ever of value!

You really have to view the ebook in Calibre Editor and it's usually quicker to fix the four CSS for body, first paragraph, chapter heading and images. Sometimes only body and first paragraph, sometimes also verses, quotations, scene separators.

I fixed an ebook yesterday that ONLY had divs for headings, first paragraph, colophons, body paragraph etc. Everything! Didn't take long to edit CSS and change 'div' variously to 'p' or 'h2'.
Adding my own custom CSS would have done nothing.

Also every CSS except headings had 'left' justified and 'small' font (instead of say 1em). There were 184 unused CSS removed by Calibre Editor.
