In theory, you could do this for an ePub3 book that made the correct use of epub:type (epub:type="appendix" for example) or ARIA roles but those books are currently not all that common though accessibility should make them more common.

See EPUB Type to ARIA Role Authoring Guide for more on the ARIA roles and epub:type to role conversion.
I've seen chapter's named with a title and no number or the word chapter.

(edit) just saw the other edit. I'll wait.
That being said, any info you have about the mismatch, the epub file etc may be useful to try to reproduce the issue. If you can mail me more details, please consider doing so. I definitely would like to reproduce what you're running into and potentially fix it (or tell you what to fix).

Programmatically, it'd be guesswork at best, and doing this for the many languages that are out there is essentially not something I'm interested in.
What about an option to set it manually, as in KOReader?

I've said everything that I can think of. I'll wait for the next full beta (or nightly) since you said it might fix things, and reach out again after that if I'm still having issues.

That's definitely possible, then. This is definitely something I'd consider a nice-to-have feature, so it's not something I'll likely add right away -- after v1.0.

Oh absolutely. I was really just replying the context of the other person's request. For me, there's absolutely no rush at all

version 1.01 would be fine

IMHO, that's bloat. I'd rather not have bloat and use the space for real features.

Heh. At this rate, soon there won't be any difference between Kobalt and KOReader...

I'm looking forward to trying Kobalt out when it gets to 1.0 - the 'exclude end matter' feature is useful for those who read a lot of non-fiction, for sure.

You may want to wait until beta 6 to try again
I see that you've completed 21/21 tracking issues. Is 6 coming soon?
