If the Kobo does not go below a line height of 1.3, and resets this to 1.3 every time a setting is changed, then I take 1.3 as the lowest maximum. I don't want to run over to the computer to put in the correct line height after I change anything.

I'd really like to see a page with a font setting that allows around +/- 65 characters per line, using only the the e-reader itself for setting the line height.

Also, I really like to know if that page display can be disabled. It wastes too much space on screen IMHO.
From what I've read, 1.3 is default line-height. It does waste too much screen space and looks awful (IMHO). Also, the page number at the bottom seems to be a standard. Sony has it, Amazon has it (locations), and I bet others have it was well.

What I want to know is if the settings are changed like increasing the font size, does that mess with the line height?
