About the original subject, under my opinion, it isn't really a bug: if you imagine the situation between two different measure in different staves (last measure and first one), for G# you would see at the begin of new system a G tied to another (natural) G instead a G#. My opinion is to repeat always the alteration between altered tied notes on different measures: I do it using cautionary accidentals plug-in but it can't remove the redundant accident: this is really an annoying bug!

When a note with an accidental is tied to the next bar and then tied again to another note in this same bar, the final note is given a redundant accidental. For example, in 4/4: whole note with accidental tied to half note tied to eighth note. I reported this to Finale some years ago and they acknowledged that it was a bug but have never fixed it. I'm so used to it that I automatically hit * in these situations to hide the unwanted accidental. Except when I forget. Sometimes they escape my proof- reading, and are I believe rather confusing for the players as well as being plain wrong.
