In fact no: I don’t' see the issue anymore on v2019.04-rc3

I detect the issue on v2019.04-rc2... 
but I don't check it again when I push my patch on the master branch top.

Tested on 
- v2019.04-rc2 => reproduced
- v2019.04-rc3 => NOT reproduced
- v2019.04-rc2 + Stephen path => NOT reproduced

So you are right, the Stephen patch solve already my issue 
and my patch can be dropped.
