Hi,
I tried to search forum for duplicate request, but didn't find it.
I'd like to see to have the ability:
a) for book to be in more than one series
b) to have the possibility not to enter series index if needed
For a) it would behave similarly to tags in mass edit dialogue, I believe division by ; would work okay. Export, import, edit, all of these would be similar, maybe with the exception of auto-setting [1], at least gui wise.
For database, it's simple N:M table for connecting book-id to series-id/index. Similar table must exist now for linking book-author records.
For b) this feature request was already here (with solutions as '0' or '1000' which are dirty workarounds, not solutions).
Also people requested ranges (for omnibuses), but these could be worked around by multiple records SeriesName #1; SeriesName #2; SeriesName #3
Also, I think the number shouldn't be float or double, but something like Integer.Integer because there are such systems around, I believe Goodreads (which I plan to synchronize to).
Goodreads example:

Book in two series, both in .5 order
