Hi,

Thanks a lot for your feedback, but I guess my explanation was not crystal clear: I have done a series of bulk metadata download, which I'm now refining book by book

So, when I download metadata for one book, I do not know in advance if the newly downloaded information will be any better than what I already have
Sometimes, I keep the description but not the tags, sometimes I want to keep the tags, but not the description, etc...

If I want to keep, say the tags, but not the description, I need to copy what I want to keep, then exit (<Cancel> & confirm), edit it again (<right-click>, <edit metadata>, <edit metadata individually>) and finally paste the data I want to keep

Adding a <save metadata> & <reload metadata> would replace 5 clicks ( <Cancel>, confirm, and then <right-click>, <edit metadata>, <edit metadata individually>) by one single click (<save/reload metadata>)
