Diddo - I've not once had series data returned for me. But wait....could this explain why I've had series data vanish from my system? Would downloading metadata be replacing my previously entered Series info with blanks?
As for series not having a number. There are quite a few series out there that have additional books written that become prequels, additional to the canon, so to speak, etc. Star Wars, Star Trek, and quite a few other sf series are like that.
I choose to put my books and documents in read-order. So if a book/document is published at a later date, but really comes earlier in the "read-order" than a previously published title, it gets inserted.
I've been using the decimal feature for that.
I recognize that you may not do things that way, and that you're the boss. Just letting you know that some of us might do things differently and appreciate the feature. If you choose not to add it, I suspect we'll survive.
Hmm....perhaps down the road a drag and drop mechanism could be put in place, so that one could view all books tagged in a series, drag them into the correct order, and numbers would then be applied after saving. If a new book comes out, it could be dragged to the appropriate place, and again, numbers could be regenerated.
