If you check the patcher forum, there are modified configuration files for the patcher for 2.9.0. All the functions of Metazoa's original 2.8.1 patcher are not implemented but the footer, font size, line spacing, margin size and brightness control are included.

See https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...&postcount=249 for the post with the modified configuration file.

Looking at what was done with 2.6.2 and 2.8.1b, it's going to be harder in the future to modify the behaviour of a Kobo ereader.
