@excaliber et al:

I came up with an easy way to automatically show the labels in the Detail View, but is also easily reversible since to use html in the Zotero custom columns corrupts them. They are not really "comments" at all. They are simple text that have to be stored in Calibre in a comments custom column because there is not datatype of "non-normalized, simple text".

I have also changed ZMI to strip out the html that Calibre often automatically creates for a datatype=comments when ZMI does not want it to be there for the purposes of the Detail View.

Since your Library View has all of the datatype=comments in the Library View since they are not really comments, but are really simple text, you will have to endure having the Column Name at the beginning of every value in every row of every column once you have decided it is time to show the labels in the Detail View. Obviously that will not be until the very end of the metadata update process. If you cannot stand it for some reason, you can strip the labels (stripping all html) from the columns temporarily until you want the Detail View labels back again.
