So for me, it's just trading one annoyance for another and not really a fix of any kind. At least not one I'm happy with at all and don't see as a remedy.
Interesting. I'm seeing that problem very rarely (maybe once in 1000 pages). But I routinely remove all style information and set the orphans and widows to zero for all my epubs. Thus the issue might be caused by how some style settings (margins maybe?) are handled by the rendering engine.

Whatever may cause the problem it should have been fixed by KOBO a long time ago. Can't be overly complicated since other readers do not seem to be affected by this bug - even though some of those are (supposedly) using the same rendering engine ...
