When using "Find duplicates" bib items that have different bibtex keys are presented as if they were duplicates. It would be good to be able to switch on a setting that excluded items that appear to be duplicates by JabRef's criteria but that have different bibtex keys. For example, Smith-2012a and Smith-2012b will be judged duplicates if their field contents are similar, but they may be two volumes of a book or two successive articles on a similar subject.
