Guido:
 
I don't think you are correct here. I'm not sure I understand your assessment 
of the issue; however, the only time that a validator's synopsis changes will 
be lost, as far as i know, are in the cases of replacement books that Pam 
describes.

When that happened to me for the first time, I figured it was because
I was replacing a book and the original did not have a synopsis. Guess
that wasn't the case then.
