Right - what I was meaning is that you can make "fake" comments by
preceding your comment with SET NOTE1 instead of '#'  - it has the
"same" effect of not being used, but won't get deleted as a comment.
It's just something I happened on and thought it might be useful.

No, not really, let me try again:
We have 4 links, 2,2,3 and 7 (all out of 10) current usage.  With the
multiple targets for one link, it would return a % of 14/40 or 35%.  I
would like for this instead to return 7/10, or 70% because that lets
us know that something needs investigating (assuming that we "know" it
shouldn't be that high).
