That is a required feature of the lithium charge control chip.
When the battery is already at or above 95% it is difficult to determine exactly how close to 100% the batteries is, so to avoid overcharching, it won't restart charging until it goes below 95%.
It's almost certain the kobo already does that. It prevents explosions.
