As someone who's using Calibre to maintain separate libraries for each member of my family, I was wondering if the Auto-Adding feature could be expanded to allow the user to specify WHICH library the function will add the incoming books to... or even the possibility of having Calibre monitor multiple folders, each with their own library as a destination? Yes, I realize that the latter would probably be non-feasible, but I'd be more than happy with the former: perhaps then one could select an empty "processing" library to be the destination and then tag and move books accordingly within the existing interface?

Food for thought...
