A not unreasonable request, though you could just as easily assign a keyboard shortcut and use that instead.
Yes.

My overall goal is to cut down on the number of I clicks needed to do what I want to do. The usual reason I connect to Calibre is to add books and I'd like Calibre to keep track of the books I have on my kobo.

As you suggest, a keyboard shortcut is an easy alternative to clicking on Reading List then clicking Sync Now.

The author of the SmartEject plugin has modified that plugin to invoke RL's sync now function on ejection, which accomplishes my goal without me needing to click on RL at all.

BTW, another way to accomplish my goal would be for Send to Device to have the ability to put a checkmark in an onkobo column.

EDIT: Another way would be to use Action Chains, but reportedly it does not Sync Now reliably. A simpler version of Action Chains would be a plugin to create keyboard macros - combine multiple keyboard shortcuts into a single keypress.
