Hey HC, if you read this. This would be interesting addition to lazarus. There would be an exclusions lists that if a game is in that list it won't show up in the Fe.
As to the original poster, I think if a FE does that they will just get rid of the game on screen, not the files.

I will be adding a "blacklist" sometime in the near future, but it will probably behave more like the searchstrings. It will have a clause to it that if you searched specifically for a search string that is "blacklisted" it will override. In other words you could put in blacklist:7=*mature* and all adult games would be filted out in all of your lists unless you specifically added the 7=*mature* serachstring to the list.
I'm just adding that for the kiddies mostly, but I guess it could have other uses, like blocking out unplayable games, ect.
As for on the fly list changing, I don't like on the fly list changing. I know if done properly it can make things easier for some users, but I know I wouldn't get it right and it would just make the interface akward. Personally I want a list that I know is farily static. The only time I want to see a change is when I've added new emus or new roms.
