Certainly this particular one is not a "serious" bug, but merely a failure in tutorial documents at most. I am however worried about the rate we see minor regressions on 'master' post 1.7.5, which seems to suggest that people on this list are getting a bit complacent than they should be and perhaps not testing 'next' but are on 'master'. The promise of 'master' always being more stable than any released version depends on competent testers and users using the 'next' version for their day to day work.
