I don't expect that Kobo will make any additions to epub2 support, at this point. I think that we are pretty much stuck with what we are seeing now until epub2 goes away and whatever is in the pipeline for epubs with the new standard replaces it. There may be some fixes possible through the driver for folks who use calibre--though I'm betting not reflowable PDFs.
Maybe this is one "problem" that is best solved by using a bigger device. Maybe that 13 inch Sony that is being talked about?
