Bug in yellow/green colors in connection path

+7 votes

As explained in this G2G thread and others, when a connection path is shown it is supposed to change color between green and yellow when it switches to a different blood line.

However this does not work when a couple has a child together but were never married. Here is an example connection path that demonstrates the problem - the color never changes but it is not a blood relationship. Bobbie Fonnereau and Ellaline More has a child together but there is no blood relationship between them. Here is a longer connection path showing the same people in a longer path that does have some color changes.

Is this a bug?

I suppose paths of the form parent to child to other parent should not be allowed in the connection finder. Instead, perhaps we should allow direct connections between two people who parented a child, with a color change of course, whether they were married or not.  Call them co-parents?
