Thanks for the feedback!
So, feeds from wordpress.com contain a <media:title> tag which seems to confuse the library i'm using, and the feed listing does not display the right title.

In regards to swipe sensitivity, I might go back to the previous method (I changed it because I found it too sensitive ). I also think it's not quite as sensitive while the article is not fully loaded and the layout finished.

In regards to the external browser, I like the way it opens in webkit, with the option in the menu to open the original article in the external browser.

In regards to wide articles, you first need to enable horizontal scrolling in the menu, which disables swipes and enables you to scroll any way you want. Although jcompagner's idea is nice, it might be tough to technically do right. But maybe something in between, we'll see.

As for the orientation, it is locked when you open the keyboard. This means that if you are in landscape, it will stay in landscape. But if you open it while in portrait, you'll stay in portrait mode. This is by design.
