No, I find it a "feature" <grin>. In my opinion the exclusion markers,
whether single or double, should *only* control whether the data is
output, such as to reports. As the maintainer of the data, I prefer to
be able to see *all* excluded data on the screen, whether single or
double, when I select Show Excluded data in Preferences. If this were
"fixed" then I would lobby for a three-way Preferences setting that
would allow showing none/single/all excluded data on the screen.
