The combine editions page seems to have a very strict ASCII sort, such that capitalized letters sort before lowercase letters, causing books with very similar names to sometimes become quite separated. For example, one might find book sorted as follows:

THE FIRST
The Second
The first
The second
the First
the Second
the first

A more traditional alpha-numeric sort would (rather than the strict ASCII sort) make it easier to identify books to combine.

I second Michael on this one. It can be a little difficult to combine when the capitalization causes such a weird sort.

What I'd really like is a key combination to combine books instead of having to scroll up/down to find the button.

Ooh, I like Squirrel's idea. That would sure speed up the process.

I agree, it is annoying when you can't find a book because it is in the wrong case, or there are more than one edition of the book. I have had that problem before.
