Something very important for genealogists

We desperately need a new feature, and it's very easy to implement. Here is an example: 

I am related to Bernabò Visconti through both my mother and father, but it's not only that. I am related to him several times through both my mother, as well as several times through my father. My point is, that you should add be able to see how many times you are related to a person. When you go back really early, to the 13th century and such, that number will likely get very high, if you have some kind of aristocratic background. An idea is that Geni could put a number, for example 7, at the top of the page or anywhere. This would show you how many "times" that a person is your ancestor, from how many individuals. While hovering over this "7" button, it could say the following: 17th great grandfather 3 times, 18th great grandfather 4 times, etc. I hope you get what I mean. One of the reasons why this is so important, is because you could then calculate how much you are related to certain ethicities and individuals.

Please, people, thumb this up and make Geni aware of the issue. It would mean the world to me.

Merry christmas and happy holidays
