One simple fix Kobo could do is fix the values used in the hyphenation dictionary.

This what Kobo use.

Code:

LEFTHYPHENMIN 5
RIGHTHYPHENMIN 5

This is what I use.

Code:

LEFTHYPHENMIN 2
RIGHTHYPHENMIN 2
COMPOUNDLEFTHYPHENMIN 2
COMPOUNDRIGHTHYPHENMIN 2

So with mine, you get hyphens with shorter words and less letters needed on the right/left of the hyphen. This is a very simple change that Kobo could do to improve hyphenation. Why aren't they doing this?
