Is it possible to just update the title page using Saved Metadata? I'm guessing not, after poking around. (Which is fine!)
In working on my guide, I was adding a section about how to customize the title page (by editing personal.ini) & thought I'd take a screenshot of what one looked like with default title_page settings. And then I realized it looked different than I would expect it to. And that was because I'd downloaded the work when I first started adjusting my library and working on the guide. So since then I've created all sorts of custom columns and moved things around. (Moving AO3 tags into their own column/field for instance, so those wouldn't show up in Genre as they did on the title page of the work I looked at.)
In the guide I keep telling people they can just update from Saved Metadata. And that works, of course, for metadata. I loved Saved Metadata!
And then I wondered if updating title pages from Saved Metadata was a thing. It doesn't appear to be a thing? And it's probably not necessary. But I thought I'd ask, in case I'm overlooking something. (Getting title pages to match up with how I'm organizing metadata in my library isn't all that important, certainly not worth redownloading works.)
A person could put some data like that on actual covers using generate cover, I guess too.
