Also, like ISBNs, you cannot have a two URIs in the same Ids field.

You can have a URL and a URI, but then only the URI (calibre sorts the Ids alphabetically, it seems) shows as a click-able link in Book Details.

Eg.

Code:

uri:http|//www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/8914, url:http|//www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=183220

is OK but only the Gutenberg link is click-able.

When you change the URL to a URI like this:

Code:

uri:http|//www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/8914, uri:http|//www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=183220

the MobileRead link overwrites the Gutenberg one.

You end up with only this:

Code:

uri:http|//www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=183220

That's a shame.

It also means I can't have a click-able link to the MobileRead thread as well as Zelda Pinwheel's Id that she put in her Three Men In A Boat upload.

This doesn't provide a click-able link:

Code:

uri:zelda@mobileread.com|2010040720, url:http|//www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=48377

Pity.
