Dear all, please excuse me if this was already asked before, but I did not go through the more than a hundred pages of messages :-(

It is possible to use a new Kobo without going through the whole registration procedure, by adding a dummy entry in the "user" table of the SQLite database, as described for example at http://justanotherdave.ca/?p=341
I am able to do this myself, but I think that it will be useful to have it integrated in calibre. People that don't know what SQLite is could follow a simple process for the installation of a new Kobo. This process would look like:
- install calibre on your computer
- install the "Kobo Utilites" plugin
- connect you new Kobo to your computer with an USB cable
- click on the "dummy register" button in calibre

Do you think that this could be added to the plugin?
