This bug tracks Soerens problem.

And the fact that Carlos and Mark discuss their different problems in 
the same bug is just plain wrong.

We must learn to more aggressively point people at reporting their 
issues in own bugs, instead of hijacking an already existing similar
looking bug (that might be for a different issue).

Carlos, Mark, can you open own bugs for your issues?
