I can understand the desire for this, but it's very unlikely that I'll pursue it- there's a lot of considerations for a feature like this (both from a UX perspective and a logical one) and I'm skeptical of how many people would use a feature like this. It would also take a lot of development time.

I can leave this in the backlog, but I'm not currently expecting to work on it.

The issue with this is, it'll put a whole lot of load on the extension sites. We need to use them responsibly.

Considering a backup & restore functionality will be added, User can backup of he needs to change devices or reinstall app. All while keeping the library intact.

Also adding the feature means user could potentially spam it, causing unnecessary load.

User should only add the manga that they want to read & not mass add them. In my opinion this feature brings more harm than good.
