you can avoid the - in my opinion - unfortunate kobo defaults by setting widows and orphans to zero in the epub. this is rather easily done in calibre. there will still be some rendering problems if a book contains very long paragraphs. but in my experience you will not encounter that too often. (whereas the kobo default settings lead to wasted space on almost every page.
