Need Better Control of Comparison Summary Report in Object Compare Tool

When specifying the reporting options for the Object Comparison tool on panels GOC5 and GOC5RO, there is currently no option to omit unchanged objects from the “Comparison Summary Report”. As a result, the Comparison Summary Report isn't really a summary at all, but rather a full listing of all objects involved in the comparison process and whether or not they will be changed. My expectation as a user is that this summary report would include only those objects being altered or added. This would then align this report with the output of the actual comparison process. I would like to request that either the "Only changed objects" field on panel GOC5RO control the output of both the comparison process and the Comparison Summary Report, OR that a new field be added on panel GOC5RO to allow the user to indicate that only changed objects be shown in the Summary Report.
