Also if I sort in Calibre by date read, suddenly a bunch of books I have not read yet will be mixed into the list.
Perhaps we could have a "Date Opened" so we don't have to modify Date Read?

If you don't like the behavior of CC's date read then you could add a column that you manually update to contain the one-true date read. This seems to be a reasonable approach, given that for you date read seems to be arbitrary. This way you can use CC's Date Read as Date Opened, and you can use the new custom column however you wish.
TBH I am not interested in adding yet another date to CC that is used by 1 or 2 people. Been there and done that.
