Bug in attachment of sources in which the spouse has to be detached

Justin Masters said: I'm referring to this record (which I've correctly attached and the issue can't be seen now), but which had the following bug. (It also happened with another record previously as well, for the same parties, so this was repeatable.)
https://www.familysearch.org/search/l...
Sarah T Cain was improperly attached as a spouse to Benjamin F L Meredith (b. Ohio). After determining this was an improper pairing, I separated Sarah and created a NEW Benjamin F Meredith.
Hints popped up for Sarah and her marriage to Benjamin F Meredith (but which were attached to Benjamin F L Meredith).
When I went to attach the record correctly to both parties I noted the following:
BOTH parties seemed to appear as new attachments for this record, and perhaps it was, but I believe it was previously attached to THIS Sarah T Cain.
That said...
Sarah appears in the PRIMARY position, OPENED, with the word Compare (following a paperclip) appearing. The button for ATTACH is visible.
Benjamin F Meredith (from the record) is improperly attached to Benjamin F L Meredith, and gives a warning sign regarding the record already being attached.
I DETACHED the record, and it now also shows a Compare option, but is closed (just shows the name, not comment field or ATTACH option seen).
Back to Sarah... showing an OPEN Compare window, but "Compare" is still visible, and clicking on it WILL NOT make it go away.
I go BACK to Benjamin's entry, and attach that, bringing the OPEN field AWAY from Sarah and now to Benjamin. I attach the relevant items, and click ATTACH to complete the attachment.
(Back to Sarah)
Her entry is CLOSED, with the "Compare" option shown, and I CAN NOW click Compare, have the record attach part OPEN, the word "Compare" disappears (as it should) and I proceed.
So it's an error in handling of the record, until I detach and reattach the record to the spouse before I can move forward with the primary person. (visual issue - I didn't click ATTACH while the word "Compare" still appeared in Sarah T Cain's OPEN entry.)
