Holly,

I can see your point about it being a nice addition to the second principal
[PO] name in the Marriage Group tag line in the PV. If this were available
as an option (in Preferences to turn it on or off), I would like it to
apply to *all* [PO] and [W] output in the PV, as it could be useful when
looking at Census entries, witness entries [P] names, etc. It, of course,
just adds something else that has to be done every time the PV is redrawn.

However, I see this as a "would be nice" request as compared some other
requests that add functionality to TMG, like UTF-8 characters (Eastern
European, Jewish, Russian, Arabic, etc character sets), or use of colour
accenting in reports, or other report and chart formats and styles.
