Yeah, what I was thinking about was something like a script that right after importing an item from - say - LOC will just delete all Call Number entries empty the annotation, etc. Obviously the right job for an Apple Script, but I just don't have the skills. I might eventually try my luck, until then the effort to manually take care of all this won't kill me.
