I suspect a future version of LTMatch will use the calibre identifiers, then leverage that to link directly to users' books in LT.

It's not perfect, because where I split omnibuses, the IDs get reused, and when I merge short stories, there's multiple IDs. It's also manual, but I can process a record in a couple of minutes, so it's not too onerous. It would be nice to be able to automate the matching and insertion of IDs.

LTMatch is one-way (due to limitations of the LT interface), so there's no automated way to update LT with your calibre IDs.
Best of luck.
