While I'd certainly like to see fuller support of CSS2 and eventually support for CSS3 (or XSL-FO), I think the most important thing is that epub avoid the mess that has been made of browser 'standards' over the past decade, with web designers having to resort to numerous tricks to get pages to render correctly in different types of browsers. While the vast bulk of the blame for that lies squarely at the feet of Microsoft, other browsers aren't completely guilt-free.

A 2.1 revision of the spec should aim at adding a few new elements of CSS to broaden support for important typographic features as frabjous mentioned, but should also aim to produce an exact and mandatory specification of the rendered output of each feature.
