Hello luoto,

The functionality you're asking for already exists. Run "Find Duplicates" to generate a list of duplicate books. Then click the small down arrow that is to the right of the Find Duplicates icon.

There are several options that pertain to "exemptions" that allow you to include or exclude specific books or a set of books from a duplicates search. You can exempt (exclude) a book from the duplicate search and if you change your mind, you can remove the exemption (include) the book.

Give it a try and see if it meets your needs. Holler back if you have any questions.

Marty
