Even PAF will do that on an import if the two 'source' records look at all different when you merge the two people. I wouldn't expect a computer program to be smart enough (not sure I'd want it to be :) to merge two IGI records with different comments or different copyright dates if they were at all different in the records. A merge of sources so you could pick and choose would be nice.

In my case, I am getting two IGI Source Detail records for a SINGLE event. Is that normal?
