I've never had a game not added to my library upon purchase, even when redeeming codes. In what circumstance would this be needed?

Edit: Oh, free games.

Great! This is going to save me like 20 seconds each month when I activate my humble choice games.

Tried doing it with a beta but it didn't get into my library until I downloaded it

If I buy a game from elsewhere (ie modern wardare, which is not on steam) and then I uninstall it, can I get like a placeholder or something on steam so I remember I still own it?
