I have a Kobo Mini. Enough said.

I'd like a Kindle PW Mini.

I'd like it to have a good choice of fonts, with adjustable font weight and sharpness. and adjustable line spacing. I'd like it to have adjustable margins, right down to zero, on all 4 edges.

Top and bottom margins to be configurable as to what (if anything) is displayed. Top and bottom margins to be tappable to make their content interchangeable with text from the book, so that the page can be totally filled with the book.

I don't need to know things like progress information or the title of the book I am reading on a continuous basis. I am happy to tap to have it appear, and tap again to make it go away. Make tappability a configurable option, to satisfy those who do want to see the information continuously.

That way, my Kindle PW Mini would spend most of its time displaying the book I am reading, and I would spend most of my time reading it.

PS: I used to think I could not do without page-turn buttons, but since I got my PW2, I have learned to live without them. That's not to say I wouldn't like them back again along with the touch screen.

Now, all of the above could apply equally to a PW3, (please), and apart from the buttons, it could be the next software upgrade for a PW2 (please), but it is more important in a PW Mini because of the reduced screen size.
