Unfortunately this is what happens when we don't have test cases for a feature
we add, and I was a bit weak and let this feature in before anyone contributed
any tests. Now, I suspect nobody will provide any tests (since the feature is
already there and writing tests is boring work) and we will instead rely on
real-life tests by users... :-(

But yes, it sounds like a bug. It'd help if you wrote up a sample code showing
the problem or perhaps just wrote a patch that fixes it. As we haven't
released any code with this feature, and the author of the feature didn't
sound as if he's even using the git version of this feature, we don't really
know if it works at all!
