When putting an ISBN is the search field or scanning books and probably some other places, Inventaire magically fetch a lot of book data from somewhere out there, which is very nice. It often even have the picture!

But there is at least one other place where you can input an ISBN to add in on Inventaire: it’s when clicking on “Add a missing edition” on a work page. I use this a lot to avoid creating doubles. However, when doing this, nothing at all is fetched, and all the details have to be inputted manually. It ends with a lot of details that are probably missing and could have been fetch and will never be fetched.

So this is a suggestion to make the magical data fetch happens every single place where you can input an ISBN. And for editions that are missing information because they have been already added by hand, it would be great to have a little menu entry somewhere to force fetch the missing data.
