I meant bad in the sense that it's a pain in the butt.

My understanding is that whenever a lithium-ion polymer battery is used (as in the Kobo) that circuitry is always employed to avoid deep discharge and overcharge. I suspect that's the case, so I doubt it can harm the battery by running it until the device tells you to charge it.
