One part of this solution might be these Applescript that unpack and repack an 
unencumbered (no DRM) ePub file:

http://padilicious.com/epub/EPUBscripts.zip

Unpack the .epub, edit the .xml and other text files contained therein and then 
re-pack the .epub file.  So, what would have to be added to BBEdit in order to 
support the EPUB standard XHTML markup?  

The Automator ePub workflow described here works well but you'd occasionally 
want to be able to use the scheme described above to unpack the .epub and then 
edit with BBEdit.  

Then, too, the Pages app from the iWork suite for MacOS X has just gained the 
ability to export EPUB files.  Maybe that lessens the demand for BBEdit support?
