But if you do that, it stays on the step 1 page and more than one person could possibly validate it.

you don't really even need to download it again. Just make it think you are.
Example, find the book you were validating and time expired on from the step
one page, click download, which brings you to the next page about the book,
then click the link which says something about download such and such a book
for review.
This brings up the download dialog box. I think I do click the save button,
but then it asks you what you want to save the file as, and all I do is alt
F4 out of the window. Bookshare's website still believes you downloaded it,
and from here you can continue working on your original copy you downloaded
the week before.
