I have a large amount of academic history books in my library, and frequently University Press books have a series, but no series number (Palgrave Macamillan's The New Middle Ages, for example.) I currently set the series number to 0.00, but would love to have the option to have it show up as undefined, like can be done with the date published field (using the little recycle button.)

This is a "it would be nice to have" type of request, not a "I gotta have it, or my world is gonna end" request, so no huge rush.
Good idea rlh3

This would also be a welcome 'nice to have' for me.

But rather than a Recycle button, maybe a check box between Series Name & Number would be better - see image. If the box is not ticked the Number field greyed out - as is the case if Series is blank. Default would be ticked.

I would also like to see an option in Right Click menu for Series in the Tag Browser to toggle Numbered/Not Numbered.

Similarly in Manage Series would need a Yes/No "Series is Numbered" column.

BTW What is the purpose of the 'Was" column in the Manage Series list ?
