i do like the idea of having subset/groups but it would be great if these were not based on anything specific to the book like author, tags etc... and just where i want to put them. (example right click on a book and have a "add to group" option) if Calibre could do that, even by plugin, this this would be perfect/amazing for me.

Like FizzyWater, I don't use the tags provided by Amazon or any other metadata source. I set up tags which made sense to me and I apply them to books when I import them. I fooled around with Calibre for about a year, not really knowing what I was doing, then once I had figured it out and decided what I wanted to do, I started all over, importing the books once again and applying the organization that I had worked out.
