I recently upgraded from a k1 to a k3. My biggest disappointment has been in how the k3 handles periodicals. I liked the way the k1 handled them.

I hate that the k3 won't let me categorize my newsfeeds. I really hate that it automatically puts them into the non-folder folder 'Periodicals: Back Issues', and I seriously hate that it by default automatically deletes issues. I'd be ok with it if I had a little more control over it.

So that's what I'm asking for here. Is there a way to set the 'Keep This Issue' flag from within Calibre at the time I set up the newsfeed? Whether it's a switch on the page, or a value set in the recipe, or a tag, it would be really nice to be able to set it once on certain feeds that I know I don't want automatically deleted. If that's not currently available, can I please request that here? I've looked and can't find anything like that.

Thanks.
