I envision a screen where I can define a new visit type, and then select count / not count.
I think the idea was that allowing such flexibility would cause some to feel they also have the flexibility in how it is reported to the bishop and the CHQ. There is a standard policy for what should be counted for HT and VT, and this website should stick with that policy. Exceptions to the rule are to be made in few circumstances, and at the decision of local leadership consulting the Handbook. I don't think this website should be built for the exceptions; however, if it is, it shouldn't be something customizeable by just anybody.
Now, there's a difference between an EQ president wanting to see reports that breakdown what is officially "counted" differently than the standard, but that should be independent of how it is officially submitted.
