If I selected the whole lot and said mark as not duplicates, then I would ensure that any duplicates that came up in future were not books I had considered. I could skip through the book groups with a very "loose" duplicate matching algorithm, then rather than resolving each group I could just resolve the ones I were dups, then select my whole library and mark it as not containing duplicates again.
Good point. Your idea of permitting non_dup marking only of books that are found to be duplicates is a good one.

At this point you have gone quite far beyond theory. I need to play with the plugin.
