Hi, Chaley.

I have two questions:

1) What is the is_multiple argument used for? I could not understand this parameter.

2) When using calibre preferences, I can create multiple columns before restarting. Can't that be replicated with the API? I plan to use this on my Skoob Sync plugin, but the user must configure seven columns, hence seven restarts.

P.S.: Just noticed you said "create columns". Maybe I misunderstood your point on my second question. Can I create multiple columns at once? Maybe this is the reason for the is_multiple argument?
