The HandlerOperations.equalValue() method uses the incorrect property name when comparing values resulting in the method always returning false. This does not harm anything, but just changes the format pattern each time a resource is processed.
Not a bug since 6.2 does not contain the named-formatter attribute.
This bug has been marked for inclusion in the 6.2.2 Release Notes. To meet a PM request to have a draft of the document available for review by 4th March 2014, ECS requires assistance from someone involved with it's resolution. If someone could review the Doc Text field above and fill out any blanks and/or correct any inaccuracies, a draft can be completed in a timely manner.
Noticed this was closed NOTABUG after posting the above comment. Does this issue (or non-issue as the case may be) actually need a release note?
No nothing should be needed here. The bug was not present in 6.2.
I have cleared the "requires_doc_text" flag as this BZ ticket does NOT need a release notes entry, as noted in comment 5.
