Exclude a group of contacts from Synchronisation

Upon Syncing, I have the choice between All groups or individual groups of contacts (or calls). to synchronise.
One of the groups is WhatsApp contacts.
After synchronisation these contacts create a separate entry in Outlook that is uselesss there: I have no WhatsApp on my desktop PC. I also do not need a backup: Android can re-create an Android contact when after the import of the back-up the phone number appears in another contact type. That function is valuable.

I have now marked individual WhatsApp contact as "Do Not Sync". The disadvantage of this approach that I must check after each synchronisation, whether new WhatsApp contacts have emerged, and I must mark them, and remove their first appearance in Outlook.

I would appreciate a new setup:
A checkbox before each category of contacts, indicating whether that group must be included in the Multi-sync operation, or not.
In my setup, I would only synchronnise this group, when I am about to use a new phone. And even that is not really necessary.

Am I the only one who would consider this a desirable feature for the next build?

Take a look at the settings of MyPhoneExplorer Client on the phone. There you can limit the contact accounts which are used for sync. Disable here the WhattsApp account
