You can achieve this via a user patch. Create a folder 'patches' in koreader (if it doesn't exist yet), and a file named '2-ignorebottommenutap.lua' (i.e., koreader/patches/2-ignorebottommenutap.lua) with the following contents:

Code:

local ReaderConfig = require("apps/reader/modules/readerconfig")

function ReaderConfig:onTapShowConfigMenu()
    if self.activation_menu ~= "swipe" then return end
end

Keep both 'With a tap' and 'With a swipe' active in the KOReader 'Activate menu' settings. You will be able to open the top menu with either gesture, but the bottom menu only via swipe after applying this patch.
