Yeah I had wondered about that. Won't that signal also get fired when I change the restrictions, so I will still need to unhook/rehook around when my plugin makes changes to those right? At least that is isolated and controllable rather than the clear signal I was attempting to use.

What is wrong with adding an 'ignore title, fuzzy author' combination and leaving it up to me to choose how I want to see them? You might want to change the default to g-a-a-t, but I don't think you should prevent me from using highlighting...
I see your argument and once again a good point. That's what I get for thinking out loud rather than finishing my thoughts offline first . You are correct, if the user has the desire to see potentially "lots of books" on screen at once then why not. It may work a lot faster for them to review all of the authors that came back when looking at the tag browser this way and then focus in on their "most likely" suspects. Then when they are happy they can just do the "Mark all groups as exempt" and the author exemptions get created, job done. Or they can go through the highlighted groups one by one, they just won't be able to see that particular set of authors isolated in the tag browser. As you say, user's choice...
