Thanks.

I set up restrictions based on search on tags:"=_New", meaning it needs metadata work, and a search on not tags:"=_New", meaning everything else (Main/storage/processed books).

(I already had a column named #wkg and didn't want to have any confusion between that "working" and the needs-metadata-edit tag "working".)

It's important to remember when in a restriction that searches won't find anything outside of the restriction. I tend to forget I'm in a restriction and get startled when a search doesn't find everything I expect, then remember I'm in a restriction. For example, the command Similar Books by Author (alt A), works only on books within restriction. To avoid that for the purpose of working on newly added books, I'll probably use saved search "New" and saved search "Main" rather than restrictions.
