You don't want to do the work - consisting of two button clicks - noted.

However, that is indeed a bug (or missing feature if you want to put it more lightly) of Marvin, or similar type of software.
I only based that sentence on your statements indicating a lack of understanding of how Calibre/content servers/Marvin actually sent info back and forth - no insult or disrespect intended - I was hoping to provide a little more enlightenment to you, and anyone else who had this question in the future.

This "missing feature" of Marvin's is one that I wouldn't want Kris to waste another seconds thought on (this particular discussion was already asked and answered during beta testing). I'd much rather him work on items central to Marvin rather than compensating for those mis-using under-using Calibre. But, lucky for you, I'm not Kris and he might decide differently!

Cheers!
