Looks good to me, but perhaps a few enhancements could be welcome:
- a minimal filtering of updated fields: especially value and footprint can be 
reset to a not wanted
text (Spice fields can also create issues if updated without filtering)
The first attempt I made to test this patch reseted these precious (value and 
fp) fields in a
generic component.
- perhaps (just an idea) add an option to update these fields for all similar 
(same library symbol
link) symbols.
Fields like Obsolete, URL fields can be obsolete for many similar symbols is 
schematic.

Thanks.
