@jicho: Margin hack wouldn't survive firmware update. While the same type of hack should be possible on firmware 5.8.8 the problem is that you would have to do necessary edits and that requires certain skill set that typical user doesn't have.
Just because the JBPatch add-in was created by a PhD. in computer science should not be a hindrance.
Any post-doc student in C.S. should be able to maintain it.
