None at all.

But (IMO) what you should do is add a custom column to calibre's database for ISBN, and tweak the import parameters to auto-fill that from your file names as they're imported. (I'm sure there's a way to do that, although I don't know it off-hand.)

What do you do for ebooks that do not have an ISBN?
