Jonaton,

Since you are new to the list, you have missed the discussion about the
new schematic file format.  New flags are going to bet added for taggind
schematic symbols as not in netlist and/or not in BOM.  Adding this as a
field will get lost in the new file format.  The new file format is
currently under development so adding this now doesn't make a lot of sense.

Cheers,

Wayne
