IDs, remote bookmarking, etc, are good IMO. However, the option to ignore sigs makes things too easy, and removes some of the fun of shifting through the clusterf**k that is the center of a wormhole system.
My suggestion would be to make the ignore thing only work when the signal strength hits a certain limit, in the same way as type/site name.
E.g, ID would only show up at a certain strength. Also... 'Ignore other results' pretty much removes the difficulty of deciding which signal is which, and isn't really to my taste.

The ID should ALWAYS be available. That, in essence, would fix the majority of the problems with the current system. With the ID you can determine what site you are looking at and (if you took notes mental/paper/otherwise) can remember to ignore it.
Making things easy does not necessarily make them challenging and fun...

I dont think I said "easy" did I? I just said that sifting through the clutter and avoiding redundancy is impossible at worst and absurd at best, particularly in dense WH systems. I would argue that its not necessarily easy but rather more efficient, seeing as how you wont be wasting more of your time re-scanning the same probe result.
Easy is the ability to select one signal at the time, and just scan it down with nothing else interfering. That's boring.
Challenging is to try to figure out which signal is promising, which isn't, and trying to separate out the different signals as you try to pinpoint the site.
I like many of the changes, but the ability to exclude signals, especially the option of excluding all but the one your searching for, makes it easy and only a matter of how much time you're willing to spend tracking down each. E.g not challenging.

... So those who say it's easy - try staying in W-space for a day and then scanning down an exit. You'd wish you had taken a falcon with skilled pilot with you!
When I find a wormhole, I regularly scan down wormholes 2-3 systems deep. It's _not_ a problem finding wormhole in w-space systems.
