Hi Patrick,

no comment (as I did not encounter this yet), but this sounds like an 
issue, so I would always file an issue first, adding some 
data/projectfile/steps to reproduce. And then sent an email to the dev 
list pointing to your issue.

Then it is (even for non devs) easier to reproduce and confirm, and devs 
are more sure it is an actual issue to be picked up.
