This restriction will be lifted in the next release. For now, I think you
would have to make the change in two steps, one to remove certain atoms from
one end state, and the other to remove atoms from the other end state (so that
the intermediate state is the same for both cases.) Then you can arrange it
so that dummy atoms are only present in the perturbed state.

....good luck...dave case
