Hmm, although I understand the issue with the no-so-clear error messages
and the usual approach of ONLY doing real changes in Alpha... Think about
the current issues with blobs. Is this an error? Yes. Can it be fixed? Yes.
Is Fb 2 B1 a release version? No, it's a beta.

Now, if fixing this bug requires ODS12, then so be it... :-)
