The ideal solution would seem to be having the stripper as an option prior 
to retrieving the book.
It could be a part of one's user's preference information set of 
information.
I don't know if there are legal issues at play with this as the stripper 
might be licensed from some entity, or if BookShare has the programming 
resources available to make such changes.
Part of the problem is that Bookshare seems to be very much on a monetary 
shoestring, and such proposed changes would require a good amount of 
programmer time say nothing of testing ane proofing that no bugs were 
inadvertently made.
If 
Bookshare had the funding, a lot of things could be done.
But financially speaking, Benetech isn't RFB&D with big donors.
