I've been wondering for some time (and more over the last year as I've
created more catch-all power searches) about having a "Do not record
this title" option for power searches. Rather than having to update a
custom rule each and every time to ignore a new series that appears
and matches the rule but is not wanted, having a simple one-time
option to ignore the series seems like a useful feature.

Cheers,
Nick
