- Add Background Metadata feature during Updates. When updating/overwriting existing books, there's now an option to Collect Metadata from sites in a Background process.

This returns control to you quicker while updating, but you won't be asked for username/passwords or if you are an adult--stories that need those will just fail.

Only available for Update/Overwrite of existing books in case URL given isn't canonical or matches to existing book by Title/Author.

This is a feature that's been requested in past, but I'd been reluctant for fear of it being abused. So don't get too carried away with updates.
