I think one of the big obstacles with library management is the inconsistent metadata in the books - it's as if publishers are hiring trainees to create epubs and no one is checking their work. This makes it difficult for any reading software to offer useful management features.
As you suggest, it's up to the individual to use Calibre and similar software to sanitise metadata (etc.) to make their e-readers work with large numbers of books.
