Add genres to TSG library export
R

This is a feature request prompted by a persistent bug.

Pretty much every week I need to be able to scroll through all my read books of a particular genre. With around 700 of them, this is impossible, at least on my i5 with 32GB RAM. The books load with glacial slowness, the loading hangs for minutes at a time, and afte while, duplicates start popping up, repeat entries of books already loaded earlier in the hours-long attempt. I'm posting this request after my most recent aborted attempt, having given up after only 2+ hours and not 3-4+ as in earlier attempts.

That is very, very frustrating, but a simple workaround would be if the TSG library export included the genre tags. Then the CSV could be filtered by genre. But, of course, it doesn't. Only user-added tags are downloaded, not those TSG added. Head-scratchingly surreal and incredibly frustrating after having been thwarted for the umpteenth time to find the data I was looking for. If user-added tags can be included for export, why not TSG's OWN tags? TSG's "mood" and "pace" tags ARE included, why not "genre"?
