Why not just send the suspect books again? I have my Kobo set to Not treat the same title as New, therefore, it replaces what is there. Only if there are major (cleanup) edits, does the current reading position vary by much.

The problem was working out which are the suspect books! I can see that I've got 65 books that are newer in the library than are on my Kobo. I've been on a bit of a "let's do some simple cleanups on stuff on my reading list" spree.
I could have just re-sent everything that was on the Kobo, but that just didn't seem like the right solution...
And let's not start on that my reading list is growing rather than shrinking

Wow, didn't know that that was a displayable field. However it appears to be if anything including metadata has been modified (eg, changing reading list order). So maybe not quite as handy as it seems at first glance?

I admit that the code is complicated (sigh), and I am very willing to help if someone is interested.

Sounds useful from what you've described. I wonder if I've jumped in at rather the deep end of the plugin world. I hope you don't live to regret that offer
