> GenericItembased Recommender currently excludes all items that are not 
> similar at least one of the input items when computing the most similar items 
> to a collection of items. We should introduce a way to have the user decide 
> whether he/she wants this behavior or he/she wants to have all items included 
> that are similar to at least one of the input items, which is more useful in 
> practice in my experience.
