I either misunderstand what you mean here, or it doesn't do that to me. I will sometimes ignore a whole screen full of words I don't consider misspelled (Proper names or otherwise). If I then uncheck 'Show only misspelled words', they are marked as Ignored for me (I just tried it).
Strange, I'm sure the list of proper names I ignored only showed a tick in Misspelled. I just tried a different book on this laptop and it's OK. Maybe I used the wrong Alt+ key sequence, although 'I' is a long way from 'D', 'N' and 'C', and I would have seen effects of using the wrong Alt key sequence.

My primary use of the unchecked 'Show only misspelled words' list is with filters, '-', '?', 'When' etc. I can only recall wanting to see the ignored words once, and that was a couple of days ago. I spotted an obviously misspelt proper noun in the CV panel, then several minutes later, when I was ready to 'look at it', I couldn't recall what it was, but I knew I would have ignored it.

Added : I think can recall seeing the proper nouns I'd flagged as ignored showing the word 'Ignored' soon after the editor spell checker was released. I thought it was in a separate column, it must have been in the 'Misspelled' column.

I'll check it again when I'm at my desktop. "Ignored", sorts after nothing and before "tick", which is probably why I missed it, I looked at top and bottom but not in the middle

The mispelt proper noun was Carkozy rather than Sarkozy :lol:
