I find that as I am past the bulk input stage, one of the commonest cases for encountering a duplciae is that I add a newer (and normally better) version of a book. I would certainly like an easier way of saying it is the NEWEST one that is important and over-write the existing copy. At the moment I find I have to go through the Edit Metadata route to achieve this (or add as a duplicate and then merge) - and cannot simply do it via the standard Add Books route.

Hopefully this will be one of the issues that will be kept in mind if a more effective dialog on what to dump and what to keep is developed.
