We finally managed to reproduce the bug (it would really help if you could
submit a more precise scenario next time, although the screenshot was a big
help)
It has been fixed in the development version of GVD, but unfortunately it w=
on't
be part of the next release of GVD (somewhat too many changes just before a
release, we want to test the patch some more before full release).
