Another way of looking at this might be to move all the files that Calibre does NOT know about to another location initially. This could be the first step in deciding what to do about automating adding them back. A side effect is that it would handle the case where a user has mixed up Calibre folders and none-Calibre ones as all the none-Calibre ones would then be moved out.
