If you do move it to the settings before the real release, you wouldn't need to add a reset top settings.

Two reasons:
- One must be connected to get the column information from the library metadata.db in the cloud.
- The other two item selection dialogs are on the menu, one in base book details and one in cloud book details.
The first means that something in settings could be enabled only when connected, or it could do what the Book Details setting does, which is to tell you to do the job in book details. This pushed me to put the "setting" where it was used. The second is for consistency: put the same kind of function in the same kind of place.
I also wondered whether the selection dialog might be accessed more frequently then most settings. People who have multiple libraries in the cloud might want to change the settings when they change libraries. I don't have any evidence of that, but it was a consideration.
