The Kobo vs. KoboRoot thing might be related to how a factory reset reinstall is handled (or not, I'm possibly getting my wires crossed with Kindles, there ).
My apologies for not making the steps clear enough.

I don't think Kobo vs. KoboRoot is related to a factory reset. In theory, nothing should write to the recovery partition so Kobo would not make it that easy. When I was playing with updating the recovery image for a Glo, I had the uSD card mounted on my laptop and still have rather copious notes on how many ways I found to not create a valid recovery image.
