Supporting the "tags" fild of Calibre would be especially nice!
Thanks for the feedback (everyone). I don't have time for extensive testing, so this helps.

I think there are two type of comments; those embedded in the file as meta-data and those stored in the Calibre database. Right now I can only modify the embedded metadata and then add the file to Calibre, I have no way of modifying the attributes in the database that are external to the file. Perhaps Kovid will see this and explain it better.

Running lrf-meta on a file shows the comment created with Bookit, but that comment doesn't appear in Calibre.

I've not had the time to research the unicode encoding issue, I hope to get to that tonight or tomorrow.
