      Ok so I just merged all the Rowlings, now I'm trying to merge https://beta.bookbrainz.org/work/15d0a7e8-2de8-490d-8bbc-b74eab9cbc24 (j.k.rowling (yes, very name)) and https://beta.bookbrainz.org/work/ba446064-90a5-447b-abe5-139be547da2e (Harry Potter)

      On this merge screen I cannot:

      • Write anything in the disambiguation (for removing "duplicate" in this case)
      • Change the Language (it's not inconceivable that duplicates had wrong/none languages set)
      • Edit/discard aliases
      • Add, edit or discard things like identifiers, etc.

      It would also be useful if you could select which entity to merge "into" like in MB - this would effectively change all fields to that of the chosen entity so you wouldn't have to change each individually (for situations where we merge empty dupes into a complete entry with much correct information, naturally you should still be able to edit individual fields after)
