Wrapping C code would be very easy (well, dunno about that specific C code but in principle; much easier even through LuaJIT FFI than in plain Lua C bindings) but adding an extra layer of complexity and uncertainty is almost certainly not easier by any stretch of the imagination.

This is the standard stuff:

And here is the Phoenix Protocol:

You can imagine a C library that translates all odd Kobo deviations into standard events to simplify things ever so slightly, but there isn't that much going on in the first place.

I'm sure you can do it with some strategic debug statements and tweaks. You just need an SSH connection so you can quickly iterate tests.
