Description
Deduping in CiviCRM would be vastly improved by being able to set rules that exclude any matches if certain fields have different values. Essentially reducing false positives.
A very basic example is:
dedupe on same first name & last name = lots of matched contacts
dedupe on same first name & last name where contact1.field != contact2.field = considerably less matched contacts
