Undefined renovation filter option

I think it would be great if the renovation status "undefined" could be turned on/off for all ArchiCAD elements.

There are always going to be elements that you don't want the renovation filter to mess with.

I've noticed that some elements are assigned "undefined" in the renovation filter when placed in plan while in other cases they are assigned "existing" by default and cannot be changed to "undefined" so they are not affected by renovation filter overrides.

I now have an existing stair that I took the time to set up the 2D pen/line representation that is being overridden by my renovation filter...grrr

This looks like a pleasant "bug", but it should be made into a feature! I've had some elements mysteriously become "Undefined", but I was unable to extract from my associate, who drew them, how he performed such a miracle. He said it was a mistake... one I would like to duplicate!
