I get ebooks from publishers that sometimes add additional formats. For example, when I purchase a book only a PDF might be available. But later the publisher might offer ePub and mobi formats as well.

I know I can *convert* to any format, but I would prefer to *add* these *native* formats from the publisher.

The only way I can think to do it now is *remove* the original ebook from the library and then re-add the book with all the new formats.

Am I missing an existing feature.

BONUS: If this feature doesn't exist *AND* you give me a few hints where I might start, I will download the source code and see if I can add it.
