I don't usual do this, but it's been few days now and I'm surprise that nobody has even tried to replicate my problem (given I posted a nice script to do so). So maybe my email has just gone unnoticed.
I am in the process of upgrading our test server to 1.5.1 to see whether I can replicate the problem there (as I said I'm using 1.4.4 at the moment). I hope that maybe it as already been fixed, but I would be grateful to everybody who would like to run my script and tell me what was the result.
Thanks
