If you do not intend to use full screen, or if you patch your firmware with the community patches, (including the full screen bug fixes), then you do not need this.

This is correct, but incomplete.
Firstly, the kobo_extra.css handling is part of the main KoboTouch driver. That will apply it to epubs* as they are sent to the device. If you use the extended driver, it will be applied to kepubs that the driver generates. The extended driver will also look in a location on the PC for the kobo_extra.css and copy it to the device before sending the books.
* It's possible it is applied to kepubs in the library, but I don't remember. If it doesn't, it should.
