Thank you for the link pointing to the older discussion - I missed that one during my searches. Funny how everyone was saying to create a JIRA for this issue, but there doesn't seem to be any JIRA for this at the moment (open or closed) other than the old one related to the ComponentEventException in 5.0.x. I think I'll submit a new issue for this, just to see if it's something that will be considered for future releases.
