As of the most current build of the KoboLauncher you can set it to open in Coolreader, and you can have the Coolreader options set to open in the current ebook.

A properly functioning suspend function (the sleep function) uses next to no power, as the CPU, wireless, and touchscreen are all suspended.

I have installed Koreader (latest version) + Fmon (latest version) and am quite happy with them, execpt that I'm not sure that when I slide the power button and the last read page freezes, superimposed on it a suspend dialogue box, is normal functioning and the power usage -as you said- would be next to none?
