The only Linux reader that supports EPUB seems to be KDE's Okular,
through libepub (ebook-tools). Moreover, Okular does not seem to
dynamically reflow the text, which was the only useful feature EPUB had
over PDF.

Anyway, if we *do* support it, does it have to be in Read? Can't we have
one activity per file format instead? It may be simpler from a
maintenance and UI design PoV. Besides, EPUB resembles more HTML than
PDF.
