Editing the css is in no way replacement for patching. I have no idea why one would think it is. They're different things.
For me, my eyes are not that fond of small font sizes. I find setting the line height in the CSS works for me. My only use for kepub is that relatively small set of books that have images that will benefit from zooming. Otherwise, I prefer RMSDK's font handling and layout handling. For the amount of time I spend on the home screen, I can't find any enthusiasm for removing/resizing/whatever items from it.

So for my purposes, anything I might want to do in patching is already handled in my editing. I've attached a sample screenshot of an epub page which I haven't finished with but is close to done.
