Notes:

* The `Custom page refresh options` patch has been split into two patches, one for 1,2,3,...,12 pages and the other for 1,2,4,8,16,32,64 pages per refresh.

* `Wi-Fi insomnia` patch is still missing. I think the Wi-Fi watchdog function might be handled by the seperate fickel process now?

* There seems to be something a little different with the EPUB reader layout in full-screen mode. After upgrading from 3.17.0 to 3.17.3 I can't get the layout of the ePub book I was reading exactly back to where it was. The KEPUB reader seems to be unaffected,

* Sickel doesn't automatically reboot anymore, so there should be no need to patch it.

More patches:

A replacement hyphenation dictionary for the Dutch language.

A new `Force user line spacing in ePubs` patch.

A patch to `Always display chapter name on navigation menu`.

If you know of any other patches for firmware 3.17.3 post them in this thread and I'll add them to this post.
