Screencast kmymoney jumping reconcile screen

SUMMARY
A slightly "odd" issue to report.

When I reconcile an account, when I click in the "C" column of an entry, I notice the entry ledger line jumps down and then returns to its original position.

In the "reconcile" operation, right at the top of the ledger and just below the column headings is a "Reconciliation" line with a "pink" background fill with the date and amount of the previously completed account reconciliation. The next line below this is a "Last Month" line with a "greenish" background fill.

What I observe is that every time I click in the "C" column of an entry new "Reconciliation" lines momentarily appear right at the top of the ledger, above the original "Reconciliation" and "Last Month" lines. These extra lines are the cause of the account ledger lines jumping down line and then returning to their original position. I suspect the that the number of "Reconciliation" lines that momentarily appear correspond to the number of previous account reconciliations.

I will try to upload a short screenshot video, and a PDF file with some individual video frame captures in a PDF file.

On further investigation what appears to be causing the issue is a combination of:
1. An account with at least 2 previous reconciliations. With only one previous reconciliation the issue does not show.
2. Having the KMyMoney ledger view option "Show all reconciliation entries with date and balance in ledger" set.

If I change the KMyMoney ledger view option to either of "Don't show reconciliation entries" or "Show last reconciliation entry with date and balance in ledger", the issue no longer occurs.

I used a slightly adulterated copy of my main data file for the video screen capture attached to this ticket. I could not at first reproduce this with a new data file starting from scratch. It was only in the process of collecting the data for this ticket that I was able to identify what was causing the issue. Since then I have created a KMyMoney test file "test_debug_03.kmy" that shows the issue. To see this issue in this file you need to:
1) Have the KMyMoney ledger view option "Show all reconciliation entries with date and balance in ledger" set.
2) Reconcile the "Checking Account". The test file already has two completed reconciliations for this account.

Part of the reason I am creating this ticket is that unexpected ledger items appearing and then disappearing might possibly be connected to the issue seen in bug 513777.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have the KMyMoney ledger view option "Show all reconciliation entries with date and balance in ledger" set.
2. Use an account with at least 2 previous reconciliations. With only one previous reconciliation the issue does not show.
3. Reconcile the "Checking Account".
4. Change the reconcile status of entries by clicking in the "C" column of the account ledger view.

OBSERVED RESULT
The entries in the ledger view jump down and then back up again.

EXPECTED RESULT
The entries in the ledger view should not change, other than the entry in the "C" column.
