- - I have confirmed the query URLs generated by calibre do still work from an interactive session
- Allow drag and drop FROM the browser into calibre
- calibre grabs the object and pushes it down the book update codepath

Also, add a note in the same window "adding metadata sources will probably result in better results" or something like that, to save some time for all the other poor schmucks like me who thought their network was at fault.
I use the Search the Internet plugin: Search for covers: <configured sites>: drag and drop into Calibre details pane: then embed (Polish,Modify EPUB...)
