Let me devil's (user's) advocate ...

There have been many reports over quite a span of time, shouldn't they know by now?

Guessing this can't be that big of a problem? How hard is it to a diff on the code?

This doesn't appear to be a standard practice for Kobo. Looking at past problems, their testing seems to be done very quickly.

Push a key and update a web page.
Again, playing devil's advocate with tongue in cheek.
