Is there something we can do about the (ugly) imbalanced header/footer spacing? I've already enabled the Reduce new header/footer height patch, but there is still a lot of space left at the bottom. Attached are images comparing the same page in firmware 4.9.x and 4.24.15676 in a (real) kepub. I much prefer the 4.9.x layout where there is a little more space at the top and almost none at the bottom. 4.24.x layout is the other way around, which just feels upside down for me.

Additionally, strangely, some pages seem to render 26 lines while others render 27. It doesn't seem to be a widow/orphan thing, because the page with 26 lines ends with a single line from a new paragraph... ?! Any ideas?

Thanks

EDIT: Sorry for the messy pics, I haven't got screenshots enabled
