I use a label in the name's Title Suffix, usually [[NOL]] ("not our  line") 
but sometimes other labels.

Not sure if what I do will cause you any function problems mentioned, but I
have not come across any.

What I do is:

Mary Jones[[nml]] (meaning 'not my line') which will sort this line with the
Jones' but are separated from those who are in my family line. 

Hope this helps a little.
