1. Open a book (I used a Kobo-synced KePub) from the homescreen or library
2. Tap the centre of the screen to bring up the menus: note no refresh occurs
3. tap the screen to close the menus: note that a refresh does occur

The above is normal behaviour, it was exactly the same for the last few firmware versions.

4. Put the device to sleep, without exiting the book, and wake it up again.
5. Tap the centre of the screen to bring up the menus: note that now a refresh occurs
6. tap the screen to close the menus: note that another refresh occurs

The extra refresh when tapping to bring up the menus continues until closing the book. This is exactly the same pattern, albeit with milder effects, to what occurs with the FullScreenReading feature. The trigger conditions are the same: putting the device to sleep, using the dictionary, table of contents, advanced font controls, reading settings menu. Some part of the reading state is not being restored properly when returning to the reading view after sleep/dictionary/etc.

Can someone confirm that this happens on their device too? (Other than the Aura, which is affected differently.)
I can confirm this also happens on the Glo HD. I was already wondering why i got an additional refresh when tapping the centre of the screen.
