The header is really OK, but from some videos I've seen, the footer management sometimes results in gigantic whitespace regions at the bottom of the page. It seems like a huge waste of space. There was one video I watched where someone commented that they disliked this also, but that they had found something where they could place a special file on their Kobo and that file made a new configuration (check box) option appear in the settings that allowed you to disable this stuff. Do you know what he's talking about and where to find that? Like I said, the header with the title isn't so bad, but the footer - at least in the worst case - is rather disconcerting.
Yep, this is all doable. Look into full-screen patches in the Kobo and Kobo Developer's forum here. And extraneous paragraph spacing easily fixed with Calibre.
