Right. The tree statistics currently refers to all games in the base 
while the best games gets the filter applied. Currently if you're 
searching for a player your tree does NOT reflect that players repertoir.

Well, I feel you've to resort to the way how it was done all day long: 
search for the players you're interested, copy their games to (at least) 
the clipbase and use that base' tree against your opponents game.

IMHO there're quite some reasons why you end up with more that just one 
reference base IRL. This is just one of them.

If I got Gerd correcly once he supplied the filter patch, it would be 
easily possible to have the tree doing it's bean counting only against 
the filtered games. (Gerd, you might want to comment on this yourself, 
you're the expert here.) The question arises indeed if this would not be 
the more logical behaviour, following the filter logic. If I recall 
correctly one argument against it was that you might actually not be 
interested in your opponents repertoir but in the best move in your 
database. And this doesn't get displayed if you filter the tree stats.

(Side note: in Scid all those things were called "searches" till now, 
probably this has some meaning.)
