Thank you, Kovid

Before I say anything else, I'd like to thank you for your time, Kovid, and what you've created in calibre. Considering the size of my libraries -- this thread is mostly talking about only one of them -- I'd be lost trying to manage them.

I admit to some consternation regarding how calibredb performs, and that might be coming through in my writing. For that I apologize.

In the meantime, I'm suggesting things that would make it work better for my purpose (and, I think, for others who use it as I do... which might be a small number of people).

If you point me at the correct place in the code to make these changes, I can see if I can work up a patch. I think the command line changes shouldn't be that difficult (find 'metadata argument', parse metadata elements apart and apply update metadata function multiple times instead of once per calibredb call).
