Multiple copies of input options appear after '*' export tools. #73

When creating a workflow which puts the output of tool A through a tool that 
exports '*' (e.g. sed) then attempts further processing, duplicate tool A file 
outputs are listed in the input list of the thrird tool 
e.g.
1) load file
2) sed  (exports '*' - I think this is the reason)
3) links bed

links_bed has too options for 'load file' (3 all up if the specific filename 
select is included.

This duplicate option only appears once the output of sed has been setup. 
Selecting either will still pass the correct file, there for its a minor 
(albiet ugly) bug. 
(using firefox)

This is actually by design. It is so once you are familiar with building 
workflows you can use this to for branching. In the example you describe I 
could select a file at 1 then use it at 2 sed. Then in 3 I could either use the 
input from 1 or from 2. If I chose the input from 1 then Yabi would determine 
that it could run step 2 and 3 at the same time.
