I agree, frabjous, that any one issue I raise will (perhaps even rightly) seem the sort of thing that will be solved via technological progress sooner rather than later. But unless you are very widely knowledgeable about an uncommonly broad variety of languages, there are almost certainly issues galore that neither you or I are even aware of, which would be obstacles of varying seriousness of their own.
And, personally, an eBook reading software/format whose primary (and perhaps sole realistic) aim is to support the English/Western world in the foreseeable future is... well, of absolutely no interest/worth/value to me... or to the majority of humanity (most of whom today are not eBook reading device customers, but if their needs are rendered basically impossible to meet with the established industry standards, they almost certainly never will be).
That is my view.
