I cannot confirm this particular bug. The particular case you outlined above worked for me when I tried your approach. But there is something fishy going on there because I saw other strange things. The maintainer should definitely look at it so I'm confirming the bug in general even if that particular behaviour was not observed. Btw, which version is this? 2.4.0 or 2.5.0alpha?
2.4.0 what strange things do you observe? maybe I can reproduce it
