Issue with known status and "you have a card for this" for words that aren't target words.
How do you guys deal with that migaku marks words in your cards as known or as having a card already, even if they aren't the target words?
I've mined around 300 cards so far and it's starting to become problematic, that entire sentences are marked in this way, when I don't actually know the words and they just happen to appear in sentences I've mined. I have to constantly double check on migaku memory to make sure, I actually have cards with these words and it's really eating into the time I'm trying to spend immersing.
I can't find settings that would let me have only target words marked es known. Are there any?
In hindsight I could've used the tracking feature to make sure I always know which words I mined, but then what's the point of the automatic feature?
Is there a way to set all target words in my deck as tracking? Or to automatically set it as tracking when I create a card? Or do I have to do it manually?
Or am I using migaku wrong?

Generally speaking, the best sentences to mine would be ones with only a single unknown word.
If you don't know multiple words in a card, what's your method for passing a card? Ideally you'd understand both the word and the entire sentence on the card. If there are multiple unknowns in the card that would make it difficult.
If I were you, I'd either:
A) Stop mining sentences with multiple unknown words. (Migaku will automatically recommend sentences where there is only a single unknown)
B) If you do keep mining sentences with multiple words, test for all the words you don't know when you are reviewing them. Bold both unknown words. That way those words are known to you.

@JonAnde This is changing to the target word in a future update. There is a database migration in Early Access that fixes this issue. It should be coming to Standard users in the not too distant future.
