When I open the RTF in Word, it's got indents in front of the paragraphs. When I open it in the Kobo mini, it doesn't. I'll switch to space between the paragraphs, which it does recognize.
And there's some level of metadata; I can set a title and author in Word. The Kobo Mini also doesn't seem to recognize the meta features for title and author of HTML files; it shows them by filename with no known author.

Did you check the Recently Read sort option? After your recent reads, it will show the rest of your library by added date.

Found it; still sorting out how it all works.

As for the ghosting, that is, unfortunately, inherent in eInk displays. You can set the page refresh lower to see if that helps.

It did; refreshing after every page works great.

You might want to look into Calibre for managing your collection. It will allow you to create shelves with a lot less effort than on the ereader itself.

I'm still dodging Calibre. I find it clunky and hard to use; it combines the functions of converter and library manager and has problems with both parts of that. I manage a lot of ebooks that require regular tweaking and editing; Calibre's not a good program for ebooks that get proofed, changed, re-edited, converted to other formats, changed and converted again, and so on. Also, its portable version is a hassle.
I may or may not bother with shelves. They'd be nice, but if it requires a bulky program I don't like using or a clunky slow touchscreen interface, I can live without it. (Makes me long for a working Astak EZR Pocket Pro, though.)
