it's just me, right?

As with JS+ - you have really created something special here, and I know that I am barely beginning to scratch the surface!

A couple of questions:

soooo many images ;-) really helpful, I just wish I knew a way to download the full sized ones in bulk. Onto bigger questions:

1. Is there a typo in your composite_custom cut and space? Yesterday, with the columns cut and pasted, the plugin crashed with 'url not found' (or no data? apologies for the terrible, sleep deprived bug report). Removed the columns, problem did not reoccur. Today, I added back the custom columns, but I removed the extra spaces in the template for the LC Authority Name, and everything is copacetic. Is this spurious and I actually had some other issue? (I've attached a revised cut&paste doc just in case)

2. I want hierarchies in my genres, ideally auto-generated. Do I need to script some regex to change the Library Codes genre ">" separator into commas? Like the example in the manual, I'd like to end up with a situation where books A, B, and C fill out the following categories:

Tech, GenTech: A, B, C
Tech > GenTech > Philosophy: A, C
Tech > GenTech > Outcomes: B

instead, I have flat ddc_genre lines. Please help! (yes, I assume that partitioning at 0 is a silly idea, but I don't grok the structure calibre is using.)

3. Is there a cap on the number of api calls I should be using daily? Goodreads Sync warns that the token will get revoked if people are doing more than a hundred a day -- as I'm totally revamping my library, I'm doing a lot of trial and error and don't want to overload any systems with my LC calls.

Thanks again, this is really fantastic!
