I suppose I am always amused by people who complain about Calibre storing data in locations it chooses. If Calibre were to utilize BLOBs (Binary Large Objects) in a database to store the eBooks no one would have any access to them at all. Yes, the databases would be larger than many people are accustomed too, but then there would be no question at all about path names et al.
Of course, then we would all be miserable in that we would have no ability to easily tweak content.
