OK, I always just tried to reproduce on unstable w/o GNOME, as I don't
have an unstable system running GNOME. Today I tried on stable/GNOME and
could reproduce the issue. Do you run GNOME/unstable?

The code you mentioned initially now looks completely different. The
view.tlu did not change much between stable and unstable. When comparing
the code between unstable & git I don't see essential changes, so I'd
suspect that the issue is also available in git. Further I don't see git
commits for this topic in the last 1/2 year.

@Norbert: are you aware of the issue? Should we simply open a new issue
for investigation?
