Rating column: update metadata doubles star rating
I’ve been trying to clean up my calibre library and noticed that the number of stars in the Rating column doubles when I update the metadata for an individual ePub. Here are the steps to reproduce:

1. Select an ePub with a star rating of less than 5 stars and click on the Edit Metadata icon in the toolbar.

2. Select the EPUB format in the upper right corner.

3. Click on the icon to “Set metadata for the book from the selected format.”

What happens: The star rating for that ePub doubles (or is set to 5 stars if the original rating was 3 or more stars). But if I edit metadata in bulk, the star rating stays correct. Should the behavior be the same for both?
