Describe the feature/enhancement

Great software, a few suggestions:

  1. While populating a new server for historic/previous episodes for podcasts, it would be helpful to have the default configurable default options for all downloads. Currently the default is set to today's date at the individual podcast level, meaning that needs to be changed to a prior date every time for adding new podcasts (to enable downloading the historical episodes).
  2. For adding new podcasts through Search, it should be able to navigate back to search results. The current setup forces the search results to disappear in order to add a selected podcasts
  3. There should be a mechanism to visually 'tag' the podcasts which are already part of the library within the search results. Currently, the only way to find out if the podcast is already in the library when you actually try to add it (and losing your search results in the process as well).
