I find this reasonable, and can't really think of a situation where
the current behaviour might be desirable.
So, yes, changing user-visible behaviour, but in a way that avoids
one particular hard-to-explain (or even document) corner case.
For master = 2.5, I'd definitely do this.
For 2.4, I'm not totally sure, but this is something we can discuss in
the community meeting if people have a strong opposing opinion (*I*
consider the current behaviour to be a bug, and the change a bugfix).
