Sounds great!

The cancel button, however, works, great.
I guess you mean the nickel web browser. I don't use nickel (don't even bother to register and set it up), so no, I haven't tried it on that. I've just been managing it via my laptop's browser (http.//<ip_of_kobo_here>:8384). You can add a folder by directly editting the Syncthing config.xml file if you prefer, either on the Kobo or via telnet/ssh.

I guess for most use cases, the Syncthing settings and synced folders on the Kobo won't change very often, so I figure most people won't mind configuring these from a browser on another device.
