Toast_wide starts about 3/4 of an inch from the edge of the screen and can be also adjusted in about an inch.
Both can be adjusted in either direction.
This seems like normal behavior to me, although it might be nice if there was a negative as well as positive adjustment, or maybe not.
As an aside, I have not experienced the wrong page problems, or the bookmark problems, and my Mini has not crashed or frozen since the 2.3.1 update. Used to crash and/or freeze totally (had to reset) at least once a week.

Sounds as if you are getting the results I expected. You can adjust the Kobo's margin but the margins set in the epub are still in effect so Toast-wide has wider margins than Toast-narrow at the same margin slider settings.
On my Glo measuring from the left edge of the screen to the H in "Highly flammable.", I got the following results.
Margin slider fully to the left:
Toast-narrow has a 2mm margin
Toast-wide has a 17mm margin
Margin slider fully to the right:
Toast-narrow has a 16mm margin
Toast-wide has a 31mm wide margin
This is using the font size my tired old eyes find comfortable. At the lowest font size settings, the margins on Toast-wide go from 6mm to 20mm which is about the same 14mm change.
The bug in 2.3.1 that I found annoying was the once in a while switch to the smallest font size when paging to a new chapter which seems be one of those bugs that hit only a few people. 2.3.2 hasn't shown that behaviour as yet. There are still some nits such as the TOC issues but overall, I'm quite happy with my Glo.
