Those are the reasons why I'm not sure that automatically selecting a row
that's less than a perfect match is a good thing: since we're more likely
to have the results contain multiple good matches and no perfect match, the
first volume shown isn't necessarily the best match. If you look at the
code (in VolumeListComponent) the volumes aren't sorted, but are only
grouped by how well they match the inputs: perfect matches, then good
matches, then everything else.

There are also instances where there is an exact match - but for different
publishers.
i.e ultimate fantastic four (2004) returns records For Marvel (first row)
and Panini Comics (second row).
For about 23 comics, I’m going to need to manually select the first row.

What I’m seeing (and the cat woman image is good example) is that an exact
match doesn’t happen all that often due to minor differences in the series
name.
Mostly, this would occur when doing a initial scrape of a comic that
doesn’t have existing metadata.

Entries marked with ">" are only considered "good" matches; i.e., they
only have the same volume as the comic being scraped, but the series name
didn't match the input. I'd be more inclined to present a volume if the
series AND volume match, and if there were only one volume retrieved that
met that criteria.

Would this be possible? At the moment it appears that the first row is
only selected on exact series matches (am assuming that’s what the greater
than / equal to symbol means).
In most cases, the first row will be the comic that is being scraped –
having the row auto-selected reduces the number of interactions required to
complete a scrape.
For example, I’ve scraped “Catwoman – Final Jeopardy”. In the paste
below, it’s the first row – but it’s not selected.

Obviously auto-selected may result in some mis-matches...but I’m not sure
that’s of enough concern to not have auto-selecting occurring.
