It is possible that this may be used in future for their implementation of TEA's DRM (based on Readium's LCP).

Any details on what Kobo is doing for BookReader: are they using and modifing their own BookReader source, making contributions to the BookReader code base, ... ?

Doing a quick Google, it looks like Kobo Desktop is using Readium (which has some BookReader contributed code), seems a little strange that the desktop and ereader aren't using the same code?

Just curious.
