I do not want to add ASINs downloaded by the metadata fetch to calibre produced MOBI files. ASINs are intended to identify unique editions and the MOBI file pointed to by an ASIN could differ substantially from the calibre produced MOBI version of that file. Whether that leads to any actual problems anywhere in Amazon's byzantine system, is unclear, but it is not something I think is a good idea. For example, what happens to people that use calibre to generate MOBI files for submission to Amazon's DTP platform? What happens if Amazon decides to implement some kind of cross-user notes compare/sync feature?
Instead, I can have the share_not_sync option simply prevent writing of the cdetype, if that is what is needed to enable sharing.
