could you please submit internal ticket with more info on this?

we fixed a number of issues that may be related during beta. I would like to test it on latest if you have the internal-project.

Repro is tricky on this one too, otherwise I would have liked to send a branch. I think my version is probably too far behind now to be viable. Perhaps if you guys have tried replicating and it's not happening, we can just close it
