Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When you lose the link between a local item and the server library item, the local one loses the description, chapters, and other details.

Describe the solution you'd like

A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

If the app downloads the abs file all of that info would survive being disconnected from the server library item.

Describe alternatives you've considered

A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.

This wouldn't be as important if there's an easy way to reestablish that connection to the server library item. But even then it wouldn't hurt to have the code there to preserve the data.

Additional context

Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.
