Annoying series behaviour

I have some books which belong to a serie. So far so good.
But when i get a new book of that same serie the hassle begins:

book 1 Serie [1]
book 2 Serie [2]
...
When i get a book which is in middle of a serie and i change the serie (sometimes the series-name differs), the number of the serie gets changed too:

book 1 Serie [1]
book 3 Serie [3]
book 2 Serie Series [2] (name provided by the metadata)
I change Serie Series to Serie and the number changes to 4, so i get
book 2 Serie [4] which is wrong.

Next problem is when i change a whole series-name with multiple books
the whole serie is getting numbered completely different. It would be great if the numbers would stay same even when i have multiple series names like this:

book 1 Serie [1]
book 2 Serie Serie [2]
book 3 Serie Series [3]
book 4 Seri [4]
book 5 Sere [5]
book 6 Sere Serie [6]
If i want to change all names to "Serie" i get a complete new numbering which has nothing to do with the original numbering.

At the end it would be great if on changing a series name the numbers wont get touched in any way.
