old 'stats' settings, or to opening document.

util.htmlToPlainTextIfHtml() (for simple HTML conversion).
They may already be available (with other statistics stuff) under
the 'stats' key, but not if Statistics plugin is disabled. As this
plugin may be migrated to SQLite, readerui and readerfooter will now
set two new properties: doc_props (containing all and only the metadata
returned by document:getDocumentProps()) and doc_pages (updated
by readerfooter on any display or font change).
PDF document: returns additional PDF properties: Keywords
and Subject (as Description).

This affects #2335, at least for documents covered by `validDjvuFile()` (see 76cef07c07/frontend/document/djvudocument.lua (L15-L23)). However, that's only with regard to `touch invalid.djvu` and should not affect whatever happened in the OP.
* Add a basic Japanese keyboard layout
Allow for entring Japanese text into text boxes. Only supports kana
and latin letters due to limitations of current VirtualKeyboard
implementation (complex text input with conversion is not possible).
* Allow keyboard layouts to declare custom modifiers
Refactor modifier key setup code and existing keyboard layouts so
that each layout can declare custom modifier key labels. This
allows for greater extensibility and for future keyboard layouts.
as the tap gesture on the upper part (mostly) of the screen is
a conventional design to show menus in almost all ereaders as well as
some mobile phone apps. While users not farmilar with the Android world
have no experience with swipe down to show menus that's why we need a
quick start guide for this feature. And experienced Koreader users
probably will turn pages by mistake each time they want to popup the menus.
The solution here is adding back the tap gestures as they were and keep
the new swipe to show menu feature as a supplementary function when
link's tap area blocks menu's tap area.
