First, I love the new plug in version. The multi shelf actions the new layout.

Wanted to ask about the view shelf, is it possible to turn it off? If not how to leave the window which opens then you hover on it? The problem is I have a lot of shelves (I'm an organization freak) and a small screen so it basically takes up the whole screen so I cannot press anywhere to make the window disappear

. It often opens while I am going to the other actions I actually want if I'm not fast enough

. Had the same problem with other actions as well but in this new version they don't pop out like that and block the screen. Only this one left.
[Update:Apparently pressing "Esc" works

. Well better find out later than never.]

And some stupid or not suggestions:
It would be also great to edit sync/add action by just double clicking the field for it.

I had to redo all my shelves mappings and sync actions since I designed a hierarchical structure for tags - adding 20 times word "Genre." or "Book.Type." gets boring fast. So it would be very neat for those using hierarchical tags to select multiple shelves and add that word before the already written value "Adventure" for example. Wonder if that's very complicated or even possible.

Any idea if it would be possible to link tags? I mean in both goodreads sync and metatada download. It would be very useful (well I already did it the hard way) since if you want to change one tag which also represents the shelf you need to edit 3 fields (mappings, tag mappings in goodreads source and shelf sync. The biggest problem is the first two since you can't see them side by side and might make a mistake like plural, with a "-" or not). If you need to do 100 of them it's a pain. No pain no gain as they say

Thanks again for your work.
