Thanks, user_none. I want to make sure I clearly understand your answer, so I'll paraphrase it: Despite the fact that calibre provides a "Structure Detection" section in its conversion menu, and within that Structure Detection submenu there is a long and cryptic string entitled "Detect chapters at (Xpath expression)", there is in fact no way to detect chapters in the simple text-file example I have given. I just want to make sure other folks agree with this statement, because it sure seems to me like that "Detect chapters..." string was intended to do something.

Anyone have any ideas about questions (2) & (3)? Adding paragraph indents to converted ePub and preventing blank-line-swallowing in LRF conversion?
