EPUB test file

The whole EPUB packaging system is made to minimize the need to download the whole zip before testing/opening the ebook. That's why the mimetype file MUST, per spec, be uncompressed at first position in the zip. Since finding a given rendition goes through the container.xml file, it would be better if it was stored in 2nd position in the zip instead of the last one as it is now.

Unzip -t it.

Similarly, it's better if content.opf comes next, content document right after, and the rest of files at the end.
