I was really hoping that some kind of map would exist that would help me understand the relationship between the exact variablenames in the mobi standard metadata vs calibre's metadata and under what circumstances I can get calibre to write to the mobi metadata.

Is there documentation on this?

For example: I'd like to write to the mobi Subject field (this is a tag in calibre so this is my trickiest mapping). I'd like to make sure that the calibre "comments" are updated to the mobi "description". I'm sure there are a few more:

Basically right now I use calibre to do my file conversions into mobi format but then I use mobi2mobi (GUI) to get the mobi metadata the way I want. If I could eliminiate the use of mobi2mobi and do it all within calibre I'd be very pleased...

Or if mobi2mobi was in some way a plugin for calibre. Anyhow, I think you get my drift.
