Ok, that explains it then. It may be a regression or it may have been implemented by the developer as a safety net. Either way I am going to reproduce this bug on my machine to confirm it. If it was a regression, we can mark this to have the developer look at it and fix. If it was implemented on purpose, we can send a request to make it more "user friendly" as you said.
