Problem with scenes created from a zone + Kelvin and Hue Tap.

Thank you for writing the bot of my dreams!

The schedule that I initiated from my Hue Tap started affecting lights that were not specified in the settings, nor in the scene. I did a bit of searching and this is what I found:

You can create a scene in the Philips Hue-app from either a zone or a room (group).

As I don't have a mansion, all my lights are in one zone. From that zone I create different scenes that I call on from my Hue Tap, it works perfectly.

When I asked Kelvin to control a scene with 4 of the lights, Kelvin lit up all of the lights included in the zone. Thus ignoring both the config-file, the web-interface and the scene in the Hue-app. It seems to me that a scene created from a zone will still contain all the lights in that zone.

I also tested creating a room/group with 4 lights and create a scene with only 3 of them lit. When Kelvin controlled the scenes all 4 lit up.

I would really appreciate hearing your thoughts on this!
