No one has reported this behavior as a potential bug, so your expectation is somewhat optimistic. Until today, I never even noticed the difference since I don't do any automated SHUTDOWN REIPLs and pressing PA2 is part of my DNA. If anyone feels that the current behavior is causing them difficulties, then please contact the Support Center to discuss.
