Yep, I'm seeing it too.  And, I'm seeing this in production, at our 
bountifulbaby.com site.

Fortunately, I don't do many calls or informs at the site.  Mostly I 
replace an instance variable in my main component with the subcomponent 
to render, and then just re-render the main component.  And this is how 
almost all of the site pages are rendered, using this scheme.  So most 
of my site is unaffected by this issue.

But, there are a couple of areas that are effected.  For example, if 
somebody tries to order a higher quantity of an item than what we have 
stock for, it #informs them of it-- and that is broken now.  And, there 
are a couple other little areas as well.

So, it's not a catastrophic problem for the site, so it is not forcing 
me to backrev.  But yes, it is a problem.
