			Can you create something that will automatically add a story to a Reading List if it has a specific tag in a custom column?

			Is it possible to create something that would autofill a list-column based on a tag column? If it has a certain tag in a custom column, add it to a specific list? |

			A permitted values column. I was hoping that the RL plugin could do it, but I can't choose which list to add them to when I choose auto-populated. |

			Is it possible to create a drop down-feature in the choose library when I use the short-cut for copying from one library to another? That way it would be possible to choose another library not necessarily active in Calibre, without having to search for it every time. The same way we can choose a previous location in the "choose your calibre library"? |
