I'm wondering if anyone had suggestions for how I might reprocess the kepubs to fix the problem. Ideally without changing the way the book is rendered visually.

Thanks!
You are wrong here. I've edited most of the Discworld books and they are not in one single file. They are split. What I do is fix the splits so they split as a section break. But in no way are the Discworld books on single HTML because there are no chapters.

What I have found occasionally is that one HTML file is larger then it should be. But that's not in every book. So what you could be finding is that you are highlighting in some of these longer HTML files. It's not every HTML file and not in every Discworld book.
