you can fix a lot of bugs by removing the bugged feature!
to be fair to Kobo, I think they have tried to give the user a lot of control over the end display - via sliders and options..... but then some extreme combinations of those lead to unwanted results....
if you compare with say the Kindle UI, some of the things that Kobo lets you tweak are preset/locked on Kindle - take it or leave it.
I do agree that kobo shoudl put more effort into bug fixing,
& they should have proper change logs, & the ability to open & track fault tickets so that we can see what is going on & contribute...
I worry that they are focused only on adding "features" that might increase books sales - like " hey lets have a pop-up that tells people what to buy next" - or "lets keep changing the home screen layout so that customers will have to see our newest offers"...& they don't see how that can actually lead to less sales because it's annoying ( if they did focus groups they could find out beforehand....)

So margins and line height couldn't be adjusted on the Sony readers?? I didn't realize that.
