I have a Kobo Aura HD, and I have installed this plugin and have configured the custom columns. However, the custom columns are not getting populated, except for one book, and one book only. I don't know if there's a button I need to push to get it to query the device database and then populate these custom calibre columns? I see plenty of options for pushing information TO the Kobo, but nothing to have it "read" from the Kobo what's already there. I was assuming it would just populate this when Calibre is "getting list of books from device" job.

Two, on a related point, I would love to have a column that indicates the presence of annotations and bookmarks, so that I would know which books I would need to back up. I would like to just be able to back up ALL the annotations on books that have them, but the only way I found to do this is to select ALL the books on the device (even though the vast majority of the books don't have annotations), and then select "copy annotation for selected book".

Third, while there is the option to backup the annotation file, there is no option to restore annotation files, correct? Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything?
