@Robert:
Did you find anything in the specs concerning the intended Behavior? As I said
in Comment 3 it works correct due to current (German) Base Manual, but I have
some problems to find an application where the current behavior (suppression of
following identical field) can be useful. 

May be: from an address list only the first (always Headquarter, Postoffice)
should be in the report, all following ones should be suppressed ... . But I
would not trust my sort order and would prefer some filtering. And for
something like that the current way is unusable because only the repeated value
itself will be suppressed, what seems rather crude to me.

We need a "Killer Application" with a clear and simple description what and why
is required before manpower should be invested here.
