Ah, never occured to me that would be considered as normal behaviour. To be honest, I still think it shouldn't be possible but I don't want to start a religious fight about that. I was so worried by the (for me) spontanious reboot I didn't check as carefully as I should have. My bad. Thanks for all the fast responses and sorry for my ignorance.
