Hi,

  Well the bug-type is Defect and is still opened, so, we'll have to wait for 
the next version and see what happens. A similar problem I've had with Android 
3.0, back them they've screwed .dex class loading, but they've fixed in the 
next version.

Cheers,
BogDan.

Hmm... looking at the issue it seems to me that it is not going to be fixed, it 
is an intentional change.   They are tightening the platform from security 
point of view, and this change is similar to change that made removable SD 
cards much less useful in KitKat:

 says it has been deprecated since API level 17, so I doubt they'll bring it 
back.

Ministro has had a good run, but unless I'm mistaken this
      basically kills it?

introduced by Google in Android 5.0 final release apps that are using Ministro 
are not working anymore, on Android L preview it worked just fine. I hope in 
the next Android version Google will fix this problem.
