The only font that still has problems is the built-in OpenDyslexic font, so perhaps someone could tell Kobo that they need to look at the PANOSE weight for that font?

It's more than just that, the original Alegreya fonts had all but weight set to 0 in the PANOSE info and it worked fine. The updated font has a lot more information included that is - as far as I can tell - correct for the font, and the Kobo did not like it at all (in fact, in both cases, the font weight was the same.).
This may require some more investigation from interested parties as to exactly what has a detrimental effect and what does not.
The only reason I thought to change the PANOSE information at all (considering I know bugger all about fonts...) is that was the only major difference I could see between the two font versions (that wasn't kerning or ligatures), so I thought aha! maybe this needs to be investigated...
