- Ignore current Virtual Library when checking for existing story ID.
Note that this could be change to the existing behavior for some Virtual Library users. I could potentially make this optional, but I'd much rather it just be consistent.

Yeah... I don't know why people would keep 2 version of the exact same story, but there are some other possibilities.
I do know that some authors repost a 'revised' version under the same url sometimes, or remove chapters (particularly in the case of royalroad and people using kindle unlimited).
I generally just remove the url identifier and add [old] to the title or something, then add the story again in it's new/revised form. *But* I did for a while use sorting to allow me to update the new chapters only (before I figured removing the URL and unchecking title/author allowed me to do a normal update via url rather than highlighting)
This was before vlibraries, where I could have just auto filtered them out before trying to update. It is possible some people use that method for one reason or another.
