FYI, the operation of that feature is a little unfriendly: specifically, the package manager GUI throws an exception and falls over. See http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=12194

Yep its a new Exception being raised that we need to catch and handle appropriately in the GUI. Its being tracked in 12194 as you point out and we will have a webrev out to handle this new behavior next week.
