Type of Enhancement

Web Interface/Frontend

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

If a book has matched the wrong item, an "un-match" option should clear out all data on the Details tab and re-scan to re-populate them based on the metadata order of precedence.

Why would this be helpful?

Currently, one must manually clear out every field on the Details tab using a combination of keyboard and mouse, then click Save, then click Re-Scan, a process which is not obvious.

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

The popup might read something like "Remove all item details and rescan library item including metadata"

v2.13.4
