Relationship Graph duplicates on multiple relationships

[magnuspihl]

Hi

I'm seeing a bug in the relationship graph when a person has had multiple "families".
In this case, my brother Kasper has had a child in a previous relationship, before marrying his current wife and having children.
When viewing this in a relationship graph, he appears as 2 distinct siblings of mine.

MyHeritage handles situations like this by having individual lines to past relationships, but only showing each person once.

I understand this can seem like a bug, but it was actually a deliberate design choice. Please see the discussion around #313 (comment) as well as #412 (comment). Both choices have advantages and disadvantages, but in general the problem can become arbitrarily complex, so some tradeoffs are unavoidable.

What we could potentially do is somehow highlight the duplicate people.

I'll convert this to a discussion as it's currently intended behaviour, but ideas to improve it are welcome.
