Sorry but I really can't see what's left to be done? You are removing the base margin, line height, etc. I leave the font size for headers, etc. I remove the endless font-size: 1em (100%, etc...), margins setting to 0 and any line heights. I set margins, paddings & text-indent to 0 in the body class and the same plus a padding-top: 0.1em in the base paragraph style. Add an indented paragraph style. After that, inheritance does the most of the work for me. I find my Kobos follow the CSS well enough that most tweaks are not needed. Embedded fonts and dropcaps go bye-bye since 90% of the time they are improperly implemented ( see years of nasty comments about ebooks being created by interns ).
Yeah, it gives me a very boring look but then I'm reading for content not pretty printing.
