Nuke 'em or something. This is one of the most annoying "errors" I see. I'm not a new user, but every time that flashes by I have to look to see what happened and think "Oh, it's that thing again".
I added a comment to the JIRA that amounts to "nuke 'em 'til they glow and shoot 'em in the dark". I don't think we should be taking pains to insure that user-facing UI conveniences are available, the admin UI is a dev tool after all.
