I strongly disagree. I opened My MPL and search for Gloucester. I have
7 different place for Gloucester with no Detail and with various
exclusion markers.

to edit I just highlight the one I want and click on edit.

I am not certain which is the Place file in my MASTER Project but the
largest file is N file, which I think is Names. at 12,000 KB.

You cannot do that now and since there is at least one way to handle the
place problem I doubt that WG will consider it.
