Hard to follow that logic.
CoolReader is open source and much more likely to evolve in support of user inputs as opposed to ADE which is more likely to evolve in response to those who are paying the license fees. OR, are you suggesting that CoolReader is not standards compliant? I was under the impression that Sigil has been following the standard quite closely, and I have not seen any complaints from people using CoolReader for Sigil generated EPUB books.

Another major plus for CoolReader.
But, that is why I suggested an option to pick the default EPUB reader.

Why would someone not know which reader they were using if they had to actually select which reader to use?

Preferred by who, the licensees or the users? But, a real status bar would be useful, preferred or not.
