It is a nice idea on the surface. but I am not so sure about GIGO factor

I see the same series referred to by different names (Even by the PUBLISHER ).

Can you imagine what happens if J.Q. Public supplied their (series) names
My names get shortened:
"A Novel of the ... saga"
Gets entered as: "... saga"

A series in my collection will Never have "series" in it's series name

Then there is the 'Index' number OMG.
some people Integer number anything published between full releases, others use decimal, Then there is the Omnibus re-release Vol 1+2+3 in 1 volume
my 2cents
