Well the original reasoning behind different drives is that the separate drive is an unreliable sd card and I wanted to keep my precious books safer than the comics. (The comics being local copies of freely available webcomics that is.)
In practice, the advantage of separate libraries is that doing bulk edits is simpler, it's easier to backup and create different custom columns etc. for each library. (Though I'm sure for some having that all be in one database would be preferable.)
And that I loaded a bunch of movies on there and now it's full is my excuse to not merging them now.
Still, the original "problem" of a different layout setup for each library, whether it be a separate database or virtual library is not solved.
I would have thought it would be an option not unlike the current capability of setting a default virtual library for each database. (The "Apply virtual library when _ is opened" option)
The hotkey solution works, but there's also the tag browser, search bar, cover browser and book details to toggle.
