It will display for all search types except for "Ignore Title" (author based) searches. I couldn't see the point in displaying all books for an author in that circumstance.

Re the query about showing books that re not duplicates. After running this check now, you will see marked:library_duplicates in the search bar. If you then type "not marked:library_duplicates" this will give you all the books that are not duplicates according to whatever duplicates criteria you searched on. I'm not entirely sure of the use case but the simple fact is you can do it if you need to.
Great work. Here's how I use it. I get a collection of books from someone that has 5000 books in it. I know that I probably have 4500 of them already. Its a lot easier for me to identify the 500 i don't have then get rid of the 4500 i do have. However since you revised the program to actually mark the duplicate books it really doesn't matter that much

Thanks again
