To summarize: it all boils down to the current needed physical cable connection for charging/side-loading. To circumvent that, the following could be regarded:
- wireless charging
would be great, but will not happen (for now) until Kobo decides otherwise;
- minimize USB connection/disconnection
can be obtained as indicated above in previous posts via NickelMenu, and using the PC-side connector for the still needed connect/disconnect;
- wireless WIFI ebook transfer
is already possible when buying/borrowing books, but not so much when side-loading ebooks (did I miss any homegrown solution here?);
- wireless Bluetooth ebook transfer
currently not possible as bluetooth seems to be audio only, and is also available on selected ereader types only.
With the above "wireless" soulutions in place, Kobo would have even less troubles to make their devices water-proof (no connector gels needed inside and such)

So that sounds interesting indeed. Any elaboration possible on this part?
