Comment 9 for bug 1523253

I don't think you need an extra control. Just that the current bulk edit
'force start with' control supports uuu.dd format and counts in single
increments from the lowest significant digit. Would need some logic wrapped
around it of course.
Just my view. If you don't want to do it... so be it... I will keep doing
my magazine collection manually.
