This 'feature' makes such a view unusable in the clients (MS Access or any
other ADO based) that *do verify* update count and report an error if it is
not of expected value.
Is there a workaround for this?

Peter, you mentioned it is documented, may you please point me to the
document you meant?

This isn't a bug --- once the first update is performed, the visible
view contents change and so the second update finds no matching row.
