A bothersome number of sister cards are often being shown to me on the
same day. I have a small database (~1,000 cards) with a small number
of both scheduled and not-memorised cards (usually ~25 and ~10 cards,
respectively). Configuration settings are as follows:

First show new cards: in random order
Review memorised cards: most urgent first
Hold 10 non-memorized cards in your hand
(Re)learn sister cards on the same day - unchecked
beta 11-b.

I suspect the source of the problem is that Mnemosyne is trying to
fill its "quota" of scheduled and unmemorised cards from the very
small pool, and that overrides the "no sister cards" rule.

I would prefer that Mnemosyne prioritise "no sister cards" over "meet
the quota." It would avoid sister cards by showing fewer cards than
might otherwise be allowed.

One solution would probably be to reduce the setting for number of non-
memorised cards held in my hand, but the low number of scheduled and
not-memorised cards is temporary. I expect those values to rise when I
have time to add more cards. I would prefer that Mnemosyne would
intelligently adjust itself to avoid sister cards rather than me
needing to change the setting manually up or down as the statistics of
my deck change, and only after I notice a negative effect of the
setting.
