[Rivet] VetoedFinalStates on jets

Hi Frank,

ups, yes, thanks. I did by accident swap the setting for muon/electron W 
finder, but removed the muon finder. I did not notice it, cause it 
already brought me close enough to our born level electron selection....

Thanks for spotting this -- and for the note about the photons (I had 
been wondering about this parameter...)

Cheers
Kristin
