[Tracking Requested - why for this release]: UX regression. it is worth fixing in next ESR52
[Tracking Requested - why for this release]: Tracking for 53, might as well track for 54 and 55.
We can track it, but no one is working on it yet, so that may not do us any good for the 53 timeframe.  
Bill, can you help find someone to investigate the issue and take on this but?

Mark 54 fix-optional as there are no actions for the moment.
This also looks fixed in recent nightly.
