So are you using a DRM'ed epub, a "liberated" DRM'ed epub or a non-DRM'ed epub? I just tried a number of non-DRM Guttenberg epubs and I can't reproduce it.
The multiplying shelves is a server issue that AFAIK is being worked on.
On a more general note, not everything people experience here is a generalized problem, and if it only effects a small subset of users it's going to be lower down on the priority list for fixing. That really sucks for people with the problem (and believe me I sympathize, I've been there with a number of newspaper issues) but that's the reality of what you're going to get with any device. And related to that, just because a bug comes out in firmware may not mean it didn't get caught in testing. It may be something that gets broke in the final tweaking of the release firmware that the external beta group don't see until everyone else (like the wrong cover issue that's been fixed, but seems to reappear out of nowhere). OR it could be a known issue but for whatever reason is far enough down priority list and they feel it doesn't effect enough users to hold back a full release. I have no idea what the thinking and logic that gets used in making these decisions and I know I don't always agree with them, but that's the way it is.
All of this isn't to say that bugs shouldn't get fixed. As I said, I've had issues with Kobo (specifically newspapers) that took forever to get fixed and drove me nuts until they did. Just realize that sometimes these are bigger issue business decisions that come down to how much time/people they have to fix things.
