Problem Spotter Not Always Finding Overlapping Families

Author	If a family line is completely hidden by another one, Problem Spotter doesn't catch it

Apparently, if a shorter family line is completely covered by a longer family line on the same Y co-ordinate, Problem Spotter doesn't report it. Screenshots showing Problem Spotter's problem count and highlighted family lines follow; I gave each family line a different colour, and the only difference between the two screenshots is the Z position of the shorter family line (which I left selected when it was behind, to indicate that it is still present). Note that the Problem Spotter's indicator is present in the first case, and absent in the second. I hope I'm not driving the developers crazy with these; just trying to help make the program better.
