I 100% agree with this. Anyway, we considered that "not crashing" was a
priority before everything. But, you are right, a proper fix has to be
found.

In fact we don't understand exactly why the content is modified after
styles has been saved. But, this has to be expeced at some point, else,
there would be no test before saving the content. I'm not sure I still
understand fully the saving strategy.

My bad for this. Is there a page explaining all the rules regarding
those email. I could not find one and I'm not sure what "correct
subject" is: [REVIEW-3-5] Request sign-offs to merge crasher fix in 3.5.5 ?

Thanks a lot for your support here.

Looks like a good workaround for the release branch but personally I'm
not happy with this patch for master. It very much looks like another
bug fix that just hides the problem instead of fixing the underlying
problem. I see no reason why we could not use the old stream if we
able change tracking and the stream is not marked invalid. Every bug
that prevents that very much looks like a problem that should be fixed
and not another ugly workaround added to hide it.

Anyway pushed to 3-5 with my sign-off. If you want it in 3-5-5 you
need to write a new mail with correct subject and 2 more sign-offs.
Please also use REVIEW-3-5 in the future.

Regards,
Markus
