Well I ma embarrassed. You reminded me of a truth which confirms your analysis. When I observed this phenomena in F11 my other machine was running F12. So that changed the whole picture along the lines that you have discovered. I am going to have to think further on this matter. But, the shame is that I expected the bugzilla people to try to do what you have dune instead of leaving me hanging.
