It would be great if someone from the IDPF or somesuch developed a system of standard ePub class names that would get modified or added to only when necessary. I don't know, but they already have official recommendations for good ePub CSS practices, like using relative sizes rather than absolutes sizes for subsidiary elements.

Calibre on the other hand, at present, generates a whole bunch of custom class names when it processes any document. Every new use of style="..." inside a tag gets turned into a new calibre class, which is kind of messy.
Yep... it's just that sort of shenanigans that may well complicate processing HTML beyond that of my heavily filtered RTF import.
