The stock firmware is fine. Even KOReader is really only needed for PDFs.
Indeed, if you are happy with the stock firmware, this firmware is not for you, what can I say. I will just add that you don't even need to register the Kobo device, you can just change user-id (and device-id) records in user table in .kobo/KoboReader.sqlite and you can use the default Nickel app. Many of us prefer the alternative apps, with Nickel I would consider giving the device back, with Plato it works exactly as I want. Different folks, different strokes.
