Bug reports entered in there are "generally" reviewed by an engineer on the engineering team responsible for the relevant component.<br /><br />I suspect the most likely outcome is that I'll get told that my report is a duplicate of an already existing one; but that should still help boost it's priority. If anyone else is a registered developer, they could also make a report and mention the report id I gave so that they all get linked up together.Joseph Heenanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09814744420039144545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3993498847203183398.post-36363193013855203042014-01-02T20:40:25.720+00:002014-01-02T20:40:25.720+00:00I've reported this to Apple's bug reporter...I've reported this to Apple's bug reporter (sometimes known as rdar or radar); id is 15739790.<br /><br />(I tried to send you a message saying 'Red'... but the address had actually appeared green.
