Back home now where I have the nightly installed.

OTOH actions are not listed in the drop-down, so it is not so obvious.
And they can never be excluded from the search?

I'm not sure what the purpose of the top checkbox is (messages,
authors, paths and revs). Those items are listed individually below.
If I uncheck messages, MAPR remains checked. If I now uncheck MAPR,
authors paths and revs get unchecked but messages gets checked. MAPR
remains checked. It seems to invert whatever is already there and is
checked if any of the components is checked. Why?
