Bug - Excluded columns using the keyboard not saved

Hi, I hit a strange problem: when I exclude some columns using the keyboard with the spacebar, these columns are not saved to the project so the next time I open the project, I must de-select them again. I have been able to reproduce this many times under a variety of scenarios, for exemple by mixing them with some columns selected with the mouse: those selected with the mouse are saved but not those with the keyboard; so it's not simply because I forgot to save the project.
Also, as a new feature request, I would like to have the possibility of deselecting all the columns - excerpt the primary key - in a single step or, at least, to have the possibility of selecting a block of them instead of having to click on each one by one.
Having the possibility of a global function for de-selecting them all for all tables excerpt for the primary and the foreign keys would be great, too.
The reason for this is that sometime, I have a database with sensitive data and I would like to copy only the strictest minimum of things for debugging purpose and some of these tables have many hundred of columns; so it's very long to have to deselected them all (especially when you have to do it again - many times - because they have not been saved in the project).
BTW, another feature request would be the ability to add a title to each project; possibly along with a commentary.
Version: SQL Data Compare 7.1.0.245 running on WinXP Pro.
Thanks!

As for the request for the new features, they have been logged with the reference SDC-908 and will be considered for a future release of SQL data Compare.
