No, Kobo wouldn't like it. In fact it might start them thinking about locking down the firmware - just like Amazon. Then there would be no patches for anybody and everybody loses.

Even if it was technically feasible it would never be included in the kobopatch system. None of the current patches interfere with Kobo's ability to earn money. This is deliberate, i.e. don't bite the hand that feeds you.
