Hi Mick,

Thanks for reporting this "erratic" behavior, I found out that it's a known
issue.
Please see https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T71382, it has been
prioritized as "Lowest" but feel free to weigh in (by posting a comment to
the phabricator ticket) if you feel this bug deserves more attention.

Regards,

David.

(PS. I responded to your wikimedia-l email but looks like it's still
waiting for moderator's approval)
