so let's say I have book in .mobi format, but the metadata is incomplete. I have to add to book to calibre, then use the edit or download metadata , then sort out a cover , & then I have to convert the book FROM mobi TO mobi to get that metadata inserted intot eh .mobi file.

seems daft that I have to convert the entirety of a perfectly good data file just to add metadate to it, and the conversion process is quite slow ( i.e. it seems like it;'s doing more than just adding metadata as it takes up to 1 minute on a fast core duo PC ) ?
