I have a list of ISBNs. Is it possible to add them to a group of existing books in my Calibre library in the ID field in order (so it adds "isbn:XXX") via some existing plugin or feature? I know about the Add Books from ISBN feature, but that doesn't seem to do what I'm asking.

Basically I need to add ISBNs to a lot of books at once. Calibre's metadata download is pretty unreliable so I can't use that.
