I only did a quick test with the latest stable build and I must have mistaken the fuzzy search implemented by the KOReader developers for full inflection support. For example, I've just looked up "gladiorum" and I got the following definition:
gladiolus, gladioli
n. m. gladiolus;
instead of the correct definition:
gladius, gladi
n. m. sword;
I'm sorry for the misinformation.
You may want to ask the KOReader developers if inflection support will be added in future builds.

Since you can no longer jailbreak Kindles without hardware modifications, you'll have to buy a Kobo.
However, buying a cheap older Kindle might make sense if you mainly read the classics, since you can download a couple of free
Latin and
Classical Greek Kindle dictionaries with full inflection support from MR.
You can test them with the old
Mobireader app. (You'll have to wait a couple of seconds for the download dialog, but it'll be displayed.)
