When I am table host and have the "permission to play" set so I can control who comes to play, I don't always recognize those whom I have marked as enemies; when their profile comes up to "Accept" or "Reject" the profile top does not have the black bar showing like it does in the Lobby list and elsewhere.

Can something be done about this. It is not polite to boot someone whom you have just accepted to the table so I haven't done that.

I suggest that the black top shows there also, or that the system autorejects host's enemies from coming to play, or that there is an option to turn on "Autoreject Enemies", something like that.

The web-client already works this way.

We have no plans to change the Windows client.

From your enemy's point of view, it will appear that you rejected his permission request.

From your point of view, you will not even know that your enemy sent a permission request.

The web-client also auto-deletes BBO mail messages from enemies and auto-rejects invitations (to play in tourneys, team matches, or at a bridge club table) that come from enemies.

this is a relief and will likely encourage me to use the web client more often

i still use the windows client because of my bridgemaster deals

so i can now use the client for tourney play or for situations where i am host

being the 3rd or 4th at the mbc is problematic

just yesterday i was called an idiot 3 times-- usually happens after these partner make egregious leads

in tourneys, i might go out of my way to successfully falsecards and the opps pontificate-- lucky

but i did not fully appreciate this enemy thing until yesterday when this expert with no name, no system decided to invite me to play a tournament

after 5 rejections, he took it upon himself to cuss me out.

so thanks fred, this stuff will be useful

Bridge Master was added to the web client a couple of years ago, and we made it free at the beginning of this year. You don't need to use the Windows client for BM any more.
