Creatures killed before they're discovered don't show

I'm not sure if this this is done by design, by if a creature is trying to sneak in to a fortress but is killed by a trap before he is discovered, he never shows up on the nits list.  It seems to me this is because to everyone involved, he never existed - just some random corpse showed up buried under a ton of rocks, it must be magic!

Even if this is a bug, it's a boon! The unit list gets so horribly cluttered as-is that any unimportant dead thing that isn't registered is a big yay! I also presume that after a while, the list may even start to affect FPS due to keeping a record of every dead cow you ever slaughter.
