Yes, the main purpose of "Exclude" is to exclude some usages from being changed when doing refactoring. It used to be disabled for ordinary search results (nor a refactoring preview), but lately we found that it's sometimes quite useful to use it to "mark" occurences that have been "processed" in any sense. For example, I could do some changes for each of the occurence and exclude usages that have been processed already.
