This is something I find really frustrating about the ePub implementations I've seen so far -- they all take a "publisher knows best" approach to layout, which means that when the publisher sets a crappy font or layout options which work really badly with large text, short of stripping the DRM and going in and editing the book you're stuck.
I'm fine with having display default to whatever the publisher wanted, but one of the key advantages of ebooks over paper is the ability to twiddle these things to suit the reader.
Am assuming this is because everyone just uses Adobe's code? FBReader and the Calibre viewer are the only things I've seen so far that even approach what I need, and it's tempting me to pick up a Hanlin variant so I can use OI just for FBReader. Or to load up 1.5 on my Opus and convert everything to Mobipocket.
