I usually stay away from betas, but really wanted to try out the new feature that excludes certain custom data from the content server so I took the plunge. I'm happy to report the feature works perfectly.

Thanks so much, chaley. I really appreciate your putting that option there.

FYI, I was wrong about Stanza not seeing all custom data. It does. What I think happened is that Stanza caches the book info data from the content server. And if you make changes to the book's metadata from within Calibre but don't back out of the download screen in Stanza and query the server again, it will serve up the old book info. But Stanza always retrieves the latest copy of the book itself. That's what threw me off in the testing. And I didn't realize that's how Stanza worked until a few days ago.

BTW, there is a minor bug within this beta which you may already have noticed. When you copy a book to another library, the cover art is not transferred over with the book.
