No, the driver makes no changes to the books they are sent over. Most of what you are talking about is personal preference and not bugs.
A prime example of this is widows and orphans. As far as I can tell the Kobo firmware treats this exactly how it is supposed to be. The default values in CSS for them is two. When reading a book without these set, the firmware uses that value. Personally, I don't like it so I edit my epubs to use zero for both. Changes like this can be done manually by editing the epub in something like Sigil, or can be adjusted when doing a conversing in calibre. There has been plenty of discussion about how to do this in the conversion.
The long paragraph problem is a bug. If the paragraph extends more than a screen, it will start at the top of the next screen. And it gets more fun if it is more than a screen and a half.

No problems at all, ask away.
