OTOH, if the default was no tags, I'd have had no clue I could turn them on. By the time I'd figured out how to turn them on, I'd have needed to completely redo thousands of manual metadata fetch operations. I definitely prefer the current default.
If I might ask - there seem to be a lot of people with Sony readers that post here about having lost their collections. (poor Charles - he works his butt off creating wonderful free software for Calibre users, only to find that now he must spend most of his time dodging friendly fire from those same users.)
So my question: Don't Sony readers have some sort of backup procedure for the collections?
A related question: I could have sworn that for the Sony, Calibre has created collections from tags from day 1. Isn't that why most Sony users turn off the tags? If so, why is it that this is suddenly a problem for some users?
