  No, twice, triple or 10 times does not remove items out of 
interest, at least in the package explorer. The same for keyboard 
shortcut and popup menu.

  Not sure what exactly you want me to verify?

  Yes, it is "make less interesting". I somehow managed to push it 
trough the above issue (once) and file did disappear from the filter 
but not from the commit set. Another thing is that commit set is not 
always removed on task deactivation. So, I see an empty commit set in 
some cases. Can't give more details now because I can't work with 
0.4.2 in its current state.
