If the dataset is sub-sampled on a boolean criterion, the

In the GUI, if you sub-sample then go to save the data, you're
prompted as to whether you want to restore the full sample first.
If you say No, you're then asked if you want to switch to the
reduced dataset (in effect, clear the old dataset and load the
newly saved version).
Sorry, that last point is wrong: I guess I decided at some point
that the last option dialog was redundant. That is, if you save a
sub-sampled dataset and say No to restoring the full sample, you
automatically switch to the reduced dataset in memory.
