Some get away with it, but they understand it is fragile.
Safer to use you NAS as a Library backup device, running the real Library on a local drive

Never seen that. How is using an SMB share under Windows different than using a non-shared Windows drive? If the network drive is a Windows file system, just shared over the network, why wouldn't that work? Especially if only one person ever accesses it at any time. We just want to share a subset of each of our libraries with other systems here so I created another library on a shared drive we can all copy to. I know just enough networking to be dangerous but not enough to understand why it might not work.
Oh well, if Calibre doesn't support that then it doesn't. I'll just have to figure out some other solution.
