While I love KOReader, especially compared to Amazon's braindead Kindle software, I've got one pet peeve with it.

When reading in a dark room, in Dark Mode, with the Frontlight active, every time I change the page (or do anything else that causes a redraw) KOReader blasts me with an all-white display for a fraction of a second before it draws the requested content and the display is mostly dark again.

I understand the flashing is a required characteristic of how e-ink displays work, so I'm not complaining about that, but if KOReader could turn *off* the frontlight before it flashes the screen, and then turn it on again after it's done, that would be awesome. Some people might prefer the current behavior, so if you implement this perhaps it should be an option somewhere?
