I can confirm that whenever you select idle loads in OS and populated the model's design specification OA the OA object will be registered in the HVACTemplate:Zone:IdealLoadsAirSystem , and later will be expanded into ZoneHVAC:IdealLoadsAirSystem. The design specification OA will be referred by the Sizing:Zone as well. So it make sense that the sensible part of the OA will show up in the Idle Loads. Actually I was also able to include latent loads (including OA) into idle loads but that required using this E+ measure. For that you will have to select Humidistat and to add dehumidification setpoint in the Thermal Zones tab.
