That's exactly what I suggested a year and a half ago (and others have suggested it, too - probably before I did):

Tap anywhere to go forward, swipe to go back.

And they could place the menu in the top left corner (like the ear in the right corner) or use swipe up or down (which was there in one of the firmware versions but got ditched for no apparent reason - the sweeping for the menu I mean).

I switch hands often and used to change the setting. But that started to annoy me so now I have a rather strange way of holding my Kobo(s) with my right hand (wedged between my index finger on the upper right corner and my other fingers on the back, making it possible to tap on the left side with my thumb).

Unfortunately that is rather uncomfortable with the larger Aura that also has less rounded corners (which makes the way I used to hold the Touch when reading in bed completely uncomfortable).
