I've been thinking, if your rationale is correct it would be more
logical to block the automatic marking when in the "Watch List" group.
In the current situation if I want the list to be updated I by hand
must first unmark and then mark the show as being watched.
That or a command to refresh the list, that I can put under one of my
remote buttons.
Naming this last one, I could, if a watched/unwatched toggle command
exists, put that one under one of my buttons. :-)
I only then must push it twice. ;-(
