Set Players as Observers - Listings Skew 'Total Players Needed'

Hi :)  Didn't see anything on the forums about this, don't know if anyone else would like this change.  Very basically,  It would be very helpful for listings if you could set players as observers so they don't count towards the total # of players. The issue I encounter is that when I display a listing,  the total players needed is automatically  calculated based on how many we are looking for and how many we are in the game. I despise this feature because I have a separate testing account, (meant for in-depth play-thru testing of my game, which is more accurate than CTR + L), and also have friends who like to observe games occasionally.  This means that for my game of 3-4 players plus 1 DM , I need to advertise the game as needing  9 players instead of 5, which I know personally makes me completely pass over other listings without even reading them, since I like smaller groups.
