Re-importing the apps breaks start/end search

[Stalker]

I have exported my db to XML to do some replacing en-masse. After re-importing it I have noticed that all entries which depended on anchored "Use selection as start"/"Use selection as end" searches were broken. I haven't had time to try and reproduce it yet though.

Maybe you corrupted the whitespace? It also matters

I was replacing file download location. I've investigated a bit and noticed that mostly end anchor which consisted of whitespace or endline was corrupted. Here's an example entry.

 

After initial export:

 <ApplicationJob xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" Guid="993b6ac8-9a89-4c2b-a929-719aee024330">

After re-import:

Notice that <EndText> is empty.

And who did it? Ketarin?

[Stalker]

Definitely not me I just exported the entry, replaced <TargetPath> with new value and imported it again.
