The fewer times I have to touch those individual files each firmware/patch upgrade, the better. Or rather, the fewer mistakes I will make  . Either way is good. Just wondering what you thought. |
I can enable Part 3 by default with the caveat that ... if anyone complains that they can no longer turn pages with minimum effort using their favourite
"thumb twitch whilst holding the Kobo by the bottom corner like I've always done" then I'll have to revert back to disabling Part 3 by default.
I'll make the change in the next few days.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean by this. If you mean official Kobo documentation explaining all the GUI CSS/widgets in nickel - I'm afraid there is none. It's been mainly guesswork, trial and error by the masochistic willing to develop existing nickel patches.
There are currently approximately 200 potentially patchable CSS streams in nickel. Until very recently none of them even had a known name, so it was an amorphous blob of CSS and hope that Kobo had used helpful descriptive variable names to try and home in on the bits that might actually be worth patching.
