I see from your first post, you already do that. Is there some reason you want to constrain yourself with what works in epub3?

Sigil has a full blink webkit engine inside it. So Sigil accepts much more than what the epub3 spec allows. Detecting when that happens is what epubcheck is all about.

Many thanks to all for your support.
I will need to take a closer look at all the issues raised in this thread.

The only reason I work exclusively with the EPUB3 format is that, in my PhD research, I aim to explain how code generates UI aesthetics, and the EPUB3 format enables me to write and edit code and share the code files in my GitHub repositories. Also, the EPUB3 combines print and web technology, and both domains underlie my discourse on the performative materiality of code.

People generate UI aesthetics using code as a tool, though unless there is js, there is no programming code, only content and formatting directives. Postscript can have code. PDFs can have postcript and other things.
