And allow us to ignore publisher-set margins and line spacing (except for specially formatted bits of text, which would use different markup, there is no need to EVER lose almost a horizontal inch or have only 80% of the lines of text that could be there on each page - unless the *USER* specifies that's how they want it)

And exactly how does the Kobo differntiate between publisher markup that you want to disregard and publisher markup that you want displayed?

And 3-4 lines at the top? Given your statement about the font size you use, at most two lines at the top of the screen. With my Aura and .epub books, I loose 5 mm at the top of the screen -- not quite enough for 1 line with the font size I use (1 em or 12 poin) which is about 4.3mm) allowing for wanting to keep the top of the text at least 2 mm from the top of the screen.
