Enhancement - In 'Check library' allow select all for extra titles, extra authors, etc

[Joe DelMonte]

Enhancement
When I run a library check, and have a large number of extra titles or extra authors, I would love to be able to "select all" for deletion rather than one at a time.

I have 1 month old backup up of library in my external HDD. Since that backup, i added some 500 books. Now my database turns corrupt. I copied the master backup files from the old backed up library and pasted in current one.

When I run a library check, i can find those newly added books as EXTRA TITLES, but how can i update their individual metadata into the master metadata file without running the complete backup restore since my library is a huge one and takes hours and hours for that.

Cant we have the individual meta data files updated into the consolidated metadata file by selecting only the EXTRA TITLES displayed during the CHECK LIBRARY.

Extra Titles should also have fix option other than delete option.
