Since this overall topic seems to come up on every new stable release,
let me add a few new bugs of the same kind that got filed recently
(thanks test teams!)

Of the above:
- 745 is fixed in 19.11.11-rc1
- 900 reported on 19.11.11-rc1 fixed in 19.11.11-rc2 (about to be released)
- 728 is fixed in 19.11.11-rc2 (about to be released)

But overall the above list has grown and nowadays is:
old:
