I just didn't want to have to do device updates on a stack of readers each time I edited a book.
At least I know that the problem isn't a matter of using an add-on I hadn't heard of or using some less obvious facility of Calibre itself.
Perhaps the simplest way would be an old-fashioned paper form - fill in when I update a book and tick off the devices when I update them.

The easiest solution is the Reading List plugin. When you finish updating, you just add the eBook to the lists and done. Then you plug in each Reader and use Reading List to update. You'll know easily if you've done them all or not.
