I am considering making the new collections option tri-valued, where the third value tells calibre to manage upon connection.

Enough rumination.
Sounds like you use calibre the way I do, and this option/feature would be most appreciated, could you also consider doing something about the ordering of series/books on the device please. At the moment I have to remember to set Calibre to order by series before I transfer anything to my Sony, it would be more usefull to have an option on the device to say always use "this field" ordering to transfer books.

Thanks
