I agree: probably svg and log files are not very useful to be opened in KO, but that's kind of offtopic here. The real issue (as mentioned in the ticket linked in my previous comment) is that platform instructions recommend to "enable all" when it is pointless. Users should enable only the file extensions they really want to open in KO.
Good suggestions. So 2.iii. becomes 'Device->Associate file extensions, choose file extensions you want to open in KOReader', 2.iv. and the Note can go away.

Another thing that's missing: how to 'Run koreader app', exactly, so you can enable file extensions?

I knew enough to look on the Apps screen, but was only guessing that tapping on @koreader would do the trick. I'm not sure how I discovered that (once in KOReader Home) you have to tap on KOReader to get to the menus with the gear icon. For some reason, for me, tapping @koreader lands me in Folder shortcuts rather than KOReader Home. And this is happening after clean Exit, clearing cache, etc. Surely that's not as designed?

[... why is there also @_koreader (tapping on that just returns to Home Screen) and the ungrammatical USER'S section heading (I am guessing the latter is PB's fault)?]

And it seems Step 3. is not needed, as dictionaries are just a wireless download, and besides, it doesn't bother to say where to get them from.
