I think we now have a good understanding of the problem. Mainly, that this is not a good or valid approach. Rhett pointed at a workaround ; I guess that using an enhance block would also have fixed the problem.
1.4 was long and hard as we had so many changes and we established code quality over different platforms. I expect to make much quicker releases going forward, that should help us address bugs and new releases of libraries.
