Comment 7 Rick Wagner 2011-07-19 15:20:51 UTC 
Good observation, Tomas!  We agree, BRMS-599 appears to fix these symptoms.  We'll ask the customer to validate it fixes their scenario, and will close this issue if it's true.  Many thanks, this will save time for GSS, Engineering and of course QE!

Comment 9 Rick Wagner 2011-07-22 12:28:42 UTC 
Closed this BZ, as the patch is not necessary.  (The fix made for JIRA BRMS-599 solved the problem.)

Additional notes about BZ, as this is the first 'live' BZ I've worked:
- The JIRA corresponding to this BZ (JIRA BRMS-641) was not entirely read-only.  It offered workflow buttons.
- BRMS-641 did not have a reference to this BZ.  Searching for the description turned this BZ up, though.
