Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It is not

Describe the solution you'd like
I have a CSV of books with some data connected to them. I would love to be able to import all of those books by stripping all of other columns and reducing its content to a comma-separated list of ISBNs; it would be wonderful if Bookwyrm could fetch all of the books from those ISBNs and import them.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Import everything manually, step by step.

Additional context
This is something that it is done wonderfully in Inventaire, where I uploaded a list of 300+ books, by entering their ISBNs.

I have imported a CSV which only contained an single column with ISBN, and the import worked. (Though half of the books weren't found.)

I'm glad to hear that worked! Having a CSV that has a header named "ISBN" should work, but it's not at all obvious from the UI that that's the case.
