Yes, Stef and I went through this. That is exactly what it is, a field
with three columns. However, as I pointed out what it is internally has
little bearing on what it is to the user. To the user it is three fields and
is a major pain when making a series of filters in a row as quickly as
possible to tab through everything /except/ that area. It is the exceptions
in expected behavior that give a program like TB! the quirkiness it has.
