Me too :).

Look for references to ClassChangeRecord. The indication that a class 
was changed used to appear in the bottom pane when selecting the class. 
This is true both for 3.7 and Cuis. It seems broken in 3.10. The dual 
change sorter moves a class def when you do "move class chgs to other 
side". This also moves all the methods.

I could find it without problems... If you can repeat the problem, 
please post the steps to reproduce.
