If a swipe does a select, that means you started slow doing the swipe and it appeared as the action for a highlight.

Also though the bug of annotation not stored if selection included EOL,
Do you mean when the selection finishes at the end of the line? Or goes over the end of the line? Or maybe the end of a paragraph? In any case, I have no issue with creating annotations that include the end of a line in any of these circumstances. Except one.

That one exception is in epubs if the selection includes the of a paragraph that continues from the previous screen. And the paragraph doesn't end with more than one punctuation mark. This has been around for a long time.

now there is a bug where only part or one word of selection is stored as highlight.
Again, not seeing any issues with this. I do a lot of annotations to mark errors in books, and have no issues.

There was another bug I noticed three days ago, forgotten now.
There is a bug on my Kobo on last 4.7 FW and current 4.8 fw on non-body margins and body first line indent rendering half size relative to everything else if not in ems.
Again a problem I am not seeing. And I'm still waiting for you to post a sample or a screenshot that demonstrates the problem. Then I can see what is different for you and me.
