Excluding MRV values in non-date API calls

[Sarven Capadisli]

Hi,

I've just noticed that some of the new indicators (e.g., Global Findex)
contains MRV for the date values in the observations:

<wb:date>MRV</wb:date>

The API documentation doesn't state that MRV is allowed for the date
parameter. Most importantly, there is a parameter dedicated for MRV
requests.

While I can filter non-digit values, shouldn't the MRV values be
excluded in the standard API responses when date is not specified e.g.,

http://api.worldbank.org/countries/all/indicators/WP11672.1

Thanks,

Just to add to this, there are some indicators with "Most Recent Values"
date values as well e.g., SL.MNF.WAGE.FM.

On a related note, there are also date values "2005-2010" which are
considered to be for aggregate observations e.g., see indicator
lm_ub.cov_pop. Should these be excluded?
