I also have a handful of real duplicates (same author and title, but different publisher/source).

What I've done is to append '[xxxx]' to the title, where the 'xxxx' identifies the publisher/source e.g. "Blah Blah [LRB]" and "Blah Blah [Granta]". If the Title contains a '[' the book gets a 'duplicate' icon.

But that's in the library, from which I sideload to Android devices so I can't speak to Kobo.
