I suspect what Jon wants to be able do is to override the margins set in the ebook itself. A recent example was one of my wife's books which had left/right/top/bottom margin settings of 10% plus a page left/right margin of 5px. On her Libra's 4.2" wide screen, the effect was close to looking at a dead tree book.

I edited the CSS to remove those margins but it might have been handy for her to be able to override those settings without editing.
