@Angemon: It looks like Kobo made a change I didn't notice and then reversed it.
Firstly, I don't read comics. I have one on my Glo for testing purposes. Hence, I never notices that finishing a CBR while reading one didn't increment the finished count. Sounds like a bug that should be reported to Kobo.
As far as I am concerned, being able to mark a book as unread is very good addition. And Kobo have managed the menu items correctly. I don't agree with removing the "Mark as Finished" item from inside the book, but, I know they were trying to clean up the menus,
In my testing and use over the last year or so, I have never noticed that using "Mark as Finished" incremented the number of finished books. It definitely didn't do it in earlier firmware. Earlier in the year I did a lot of experiments to see how this worked, so I would have noticed. I'll admit that I haven't used it as much lately as I either read the book to completion or change the status from calibre. But, I just had a reason to do a factory reset and ended up on 2.10.0. And yes, marking a book as finished in the library list increments the finished book count.
But Kobo have changed this for 3.0.0. My guess is that it is deliberate. It is a return to earlier behaviour. And it avoids the question of what to do when a finished book is marked as unread. Personally, I am happy with this behaviour.
