[ZendTo] Problem updating 6.05-4 to 6.13-3

[jules at zend.to]

The ones with the numeric values should be labelled as "requests" in one 
of the other columns. They are requests-for-dropoffs, not dropoffs 
themselves. They should get cleared up like they have been in the past, 
it's just now they show in that table.

Cheers,
Jules.
