Am I correct in thinking that this simply handles the triggers, but nothing else?
There are a lot of interrelated fields that include the author or title field, from the path to the books to various sort fields.
IOW, would you need to separately fix the directory/filename in the library if you changed the title or author in the database? Would you need to update the path field if you changed the author, or could you leave the original path and not change the directory/filename in the library?
This is mainly just curiosity, but the one feature that I've been tempted to deal with externally is merging different records for different formats of the same book into a single record. I see an open feature enhancement request for that, so perhaps it's going to be implemented.
