The almost grayscale screenshot of 11-Jan-2014 gives a hint of what might be possible on a Kindle:

So if you have even a simple, do nothing but paint the screen, example on a Kindle - that would be nice.
Even better, if you can get it working on your K3.
Note: You may have to patch or enhance the framebuffer support to deal with the framebuffer layout on Kindles - not all models are the same.
Geekmaster has posted a lot on that subject here.
Ah, and getting it to work with the K4's idea of a keyboard ...
You can probable find ideas on that in the KOreader repository (which is mostly Lua).
So I will assume that your code changes are intended to be covered by the same license.

I have run the demos on my kt2.
Its compiled with the x11 driver only, so it can only be used for kindle touch devices 5.x
framebuffer support will be too difficult for me!
I will try to package a demo into a kual extension.
and no change in license, I dun think I will touch any other codes.
