Earlier ghosting was apparent in many places (after book menu or dictionary lookup shown, or after waking device from sleep). So, kobo has a complete refresh (or full refresh) after each of these activities (in case of sleep-wake and dictionary lookup, refresh happens during next page turn and in case of menu it happens immediately).

As I said earlier (and others have commented before) the ghosting is almost completely absent now and the full refresh (which is an eye sore and a disturbance) is unnecessary now. It will be great if kobo removed/disabled this full refresh (at least as an option). Can someone create a feature request, please?
I have to disagree. Ghosting is still present, especially on the older devices. I frequently notice the ghosting after using the dictionary lookup, especially towards the end of a long chapter. I want a way to cleanup the screen rather than waiting for the chapter break.

And why are you asking for someone else to create the feature request? If you think this is important, contact Kobo and tell them. Just like everyone else who sees a bug or wants a change made.

Just in case you don't know, this forum is not an official Kobo support channel. There used to be some Kobo employees here as members, but, it was never in any official capacity. I don't know if there are any here now.
