I have another reading list that is sync'ed from what is on the device, and sets the flag, so everything on the device gets the flag set eventually.
I have saved searches that give me lists of books that are suppose to be on the device but are not (in case I finish a book and delete it, now I can go mark the book as done and clear the on device tag).
It is possible to soft reset the device and have it rebuild the database without needing to re-sideload all the books (just delete the database), but even if the side loaded books get wiped, I can just select the ones with the tag and schedule them to be sync'ed again. Or weed out the list before I do that. Or send them in small batches over a couple of days when it is convenient...

I prefer to use virtual libraries for that. I have presently 5: Archive, Libra 2, Sage, Elipsa, and one for the cousin whose reader I administer.
