I would love to get a Calibre integrated alternative to KTE (even if I know this is more a Calibre than a kepubify improvement request).

This is a duplicate of #17, but the situation has changed a bit, so I'm willing to reconsider this. With the rewrite of the kepubify conversion code I did for v4, this would be much easier to implement than before. Also, I think I have a better understanding of the architecture of Calibre plugins now compared to back then.

I'll experiment with this when I have time.

The Calibre docs have improved over the years:
