That along with making the clock time available in the CoolReader status bar should make some of us happier campers.
While a few might be happy with CoolReader it would not solve the problem for many people and would introduce confusion in that CoolReader is not nearly as robust in interpreting CSS so many books would not be formatted correctly and CoolReader will not read any ePUBs with DRM. People would complain and it would be more difficult to support without knowing which reader they were using. An optional banner is the preferred solution. I was added for PDF at one point although Jinke seems to think they always know the correct solution, whichever way they decide, and have never made it a user option.
