Works great, but I cannot figure out how this would allow to send books to the wrong shelf - I've rechecked the calibre library and all information for the offending book is correct.

I had a similar column (again thanks to PeterT) that worked like a charm for a while and then started going crazy. My column IIIRC was
{series:'ifempty($, ifempty(field('series'),'0 series'))'}
This gave me one shelf with all non series books called 0 series.
Then it stopped working reliably. I think it is something to do the custom column built from other columns code as I had different problems making collections on the Sony T1 using and expression that chaley did for me a year ago. Would work fine on the 300 and 650 but messed op the T1. And while PeterT's solution seems more elegant, I went to a simpler brute force way of doing it.
