Is it possible for one of these two options to happen?

1 - Have a way to permanently disable the pop up that there are custom columns that are not in the destination Library? I'd even prefer a pop up when Calibre starts up than one each time I try to move a book to another library. EDIT: This is misleading. If a new column is created, or sending to a new library, the pop up should be there. Only if it is dismissed for a particular column/library should it not show up again.

-or-

2 - If I copy a custom column just to get rid of the pop up, to have it NOT show up in Edit Metadata? If I only have it in the Library to get rid of the constant alerts that are distracting and annoying, I don't really want to see it. In the columns, since it's empty, I can stick it at the end and make it narrow so it doesn't take up much space, but in Edit Metadata, it just takes up space.

Even if both happen that's great. I know some I only use in column view not edit metadata, so picking and choosing would work great.
