I did not have success using commit 71b934b7. It removed all selected objects. 🤔

I don't know if it's possible, but rather than the extension removing the redundants, it be useful to have the options to modify the selection:

• select only the occluded objects
• select only the non-occluded objects

Users can then modify/delete/duplicate as they see fit.

Yes - it did work for me with spray clones etc.

However no for the svg you linked to.

I'm not sure 100% why it did that. I get the same result.

Also a couple of circles with very tiny bits showing through were deleted - which is wrong. 

I think I will add it to the selection plus extension once I have correct for that. 

Thanks Tyler
