The Kobo Patcher is a hack which was originally developed almost a year ago by a Russian user called Metazoa. More recently GeoffR and a few others have developed it further to be slightly easier to apply for less technical users.
In a nutshell, it consists of an ever-growing list of small tweaks to existing Kobo firmware, each of which make the Kobo just a bit more customisable to individual taste (e.g. range of available font-sizes/line spacing/page margins, ability to apply Kobo font thickening to all sideloaded fonts (not just built-in fonts), reduction of space devoted to bottom page status bar, fixing (sort of) the "long-paragraph bug" ... and many more). Each tweak can be easily enabled/disabled depending on each user's personal preference.
The original thread is
here (very long), but if you decide it's something you'd like to try,
this thread is best if you have fw 3.3.x/3.4.x.
