One other piece of information - I have just found if the erased path crosses
itself (without releasing the mouse button) the intersection stays erased - for
example if a figure 8 is drawn in one operation the problem doesn't appear.

I don't see the same thing on the same PC (running W7 64-bit) using V2.8.20.
