I have to re-think my workflow, i guess
Personally, I have a directory (eBooks, short and unimaginative) in the root of exposed storage ( /mnt/onboard from the Kobo's side) where calibre copies ebooks to on send to device. If I connected from KOReader, after I safely eject, I will switch back to Nickel and allow it to import all books. If I connected from Nickel, the import will start after I safely eject.

I am using the KoboTouch driver so calibre uses the book list from the Kobo database to match books to the calibre library. This means that Nickel needs to import them so they will show as being on the device.

My preference is to use KOReader's ability to search calibre's metadata.calibre file stored in the root of the exposed storage as a means of locating books. Just too painful when you have multiple books with more than 1 author to try using a directory structure to locate books.
