I am assuming the last fw is not explored enough and could maybe housing some unpleasant surprises as sickel in 3.17
I will mostly read pdfs using koreader so does it make any difference?

3.18.0 has been out for over two months. Any unpleasant surprises will have been found. And they are usually found within a couple of days of release.

As to the effect on Koreader, I don't know as I don't use it.

I use KOReader to read, in order of numbers read, epub, pdb, txt, and pdf. Also, the occasional home made cbz. As I have mentioned I keep my library within a hidden folder, so it is not subject to Kobo processing. I am still using firmware 3.5.0.

Luck;
Ken

advboot is installed, patched a lua file, and installed koreader, now I am good to go.Did some testing with different pdfs, looks promising but surely needs more patching. So first things first:
1. sticky highlighted text, how do I get rid of that; once highlighted text is sticky even after turning pages or even after restart, is there a patch for that thing or a workaround?

sure I did, koreader-kobo-arm-linux-gnueabihf-v2015.11-stable.targz
edit:
ok, highlighting is unusable, I disabled it.
Are the settings per book? do I have to change them in a conf file to make them globally persistent for all books?
Great is the on the fly cropping(zooming) functionality, makes k2pdfopt obsolete and saves me a lot of time.

I recommend you report the actual issue with the highlight feature in github so the developers can take a look: https://github.com/koreader/koreader/issues

If you really want to disable highlight by default. You can change this line:

https://github.com/koreader/koreader...light.lua#L524

Just modify the last false to true.
