I doubt there's consensus, likely just me misunderstanding. It doesn't seem like a great default configuration, but if it's something that's explicitly been allowed and which admins rely on, we should certainly be careful about changing it, and if it doesn't currently work in practice, we should fix that for F13. Thanks for the explanation. So Tony, disregarding my earlier mails, could you file a bug on whatever is preventing this working as it did in F12?
