OK, we are talking about the same thing, metadata bulk edit. You put this thread in the (book) Editor subforum. I will move it to the Library Management subforum.

For various interface and technical reasons the Identifiers field doesn't appear on the bulk metadata edit "Basic metadata" tab. I doubt this will change. I know I am not interested in doing the work.

However, as I said above, you can edit identifiers using the bulk metadata edit "Search and replace" tab in "Regular expression" mode. You can delete identifiers, change an identifier name, change an identifier value, create new identifiers from existing ones, or replace the entire set of identifiers with the result of evaluating a template.

As @theducks pointed out, you can delete identifiers from the tag browser.
