Got it, thanks. (I had accidentally used an old workspace that still had 
a TextMorphEditor installed)

Only Juan could say for sure if there was some intention behind changing 
this but this is clearly broken so my take on it would be to fix it 
first and ask questions later :-) It's easily undone if it turns out not 
to be the preferred choice of fixing it but I can see how that might be 
annoying.
