FBReader does not have a complete implementation of ePub. It does not handle SVG at all, and images are always centered with no adjacent text. In this case, Windows FBReader seems to be confused by the CSS and the graphical 1st letters are not displayed at all. However, OpenInkPot's FBReader does display the graphical letters (stand-alone and centered) and this works reasonably well because the graphical letters are so large.
It would seem that Stanza and Windows FBReader should use the "alt=" option which is present, although I don't know how that would come out on the page.
I agree that it is perfectly ok for ePubs to assume complete implementation of the standard in the Reader. If an ePub has Adobe DRM, all it really needs to do is work in Desktop and mobile ADE.
