I don't know about epub ereader dictionaries, but updates to Notebook SW and conversion dictionaries work in SideloadedMode=true.

I have a working Kobo account and also Kobos that 'registered' fine using a fake email. There is not the privacy issues of Android, Amazon or even Apple with a real email address to register a Kobo. I use SideloadedMode = true because I prefer the GUI and I manage any Kobo bought ebooks with calibre and have no interest in sync to other ereaders/apps or store.

Also I find copy / paste of web page(s) into LO Writer and conversion to epub via calibre (via extra Save As in Docx) far better than Mozilla's creepy Pocket service which might have worse privacy than Kobo and doesn't work well with all sites.
