Placement bug display type bug

I have a blog and a blogpost with the following placement:

<Match ContentType="BlogPost">
    <Match displayType="Detail">
      <Place Parts_Common_Body="Content:1"/>
    </Match>
    <Match displayType="SummarySmall">
      <Place Parts_Title="Content:1;Alternate=BlogPostSummarySmallTitle"/>
      <Place Parts_Common_Body="-"/>
      <Place Parts_Common_Body_Summary="Content:2;Alternate=Parts_Common_Body_Summary-BlogPost"/>
    </Match> 
  </Match>

The strange thing is that in DisplayType Detail the rules of SummarySmall are picked also. Is this a known bug of placement (using orchard 1.4) that it's mixing up the placement of different displaytypes?

There is a workaround, which is to use two non-nested matches with both criteria on.

The following is indeed a workarround but it's still a bug. It quiet confusing and I think esspecially when you are new with Orchard.

<Match ContentType="BlogPost" displayType="SummarySmall">   
      <Place Parts_Title="Content:1;Alternate=BlogPostSummarySmallTitle"/>
      <Place Parts_Common_Body="-"/>
      <Place Parts_Common_Body_Summary="Content:2;Alternate=Parts_Common_Body_Summary-BlogPost"/>
  </Match>

  <Match ContentType="BlogPost" displayType="Detail"> 
      <Place Parts_Title="Content:1"/>
      <Place Parts_Common_Body="Content:2"/>
      <Place Parts_Common_Body_Summary="-" />   
  </Match>

  <Match ContentType="BlogPost" displayType="Summary">
      <Place Parts_Common_Body_Summary="Content:2;Alternate=Parts_Common_Body_Summary-BlogPost"/>
      <Place Parts_Common_Body="-"/>
      <Place Parts_Title="-"/>
  </Match>

well after some examination the workaround doesn't work for all cases. So I think this is quiet critical because it's such a basic feature of orchard.

So the bug is that you cannot nest multiple DisplayType matches inside a ContentType match in general or..?

Ok this is really strange. The next day if suddenly works without any changes to the code. Maybe some temp file has updated finally or something? How can i trigger this? Can I delete a file so that the placement info is updated?

Oops no I look a the wrong page. The problem is still there! I do nothing special. I have a recent blog post widget and a news page which show summary items of blogpost. The problem exists when you open a blog post in detail displaytype mode. Then there's no way i can show the title and the body is only in summary mode.

<Match ContentType="BlogPost" displayType="Detail">
    <Place Parts_Title="Content:1"/>
    <Place Parts_Common_Body="Content:2"/>
    <Place Parts_Common_Body_Summary="-" />
    <Place Parts_Blogs_Blog_Description="Content:2"/>
  </Match>
  <Match ContentType="BlogPost" displayType="Summary">
    <Place Parts_Common_Body_Summary="Content:2;Alternate=Parts_Common_Body_Summary-BlogPost"/>
    <Place Parts_Common_Body="-"/>
    <Place Parts_Title="-"/>
  </Match>

I have used the path (path="/news" etc.) criteria as a workaround but that's very nasty because i have to copy each match tag for each culture specific path. You will see the problem when you view the details page of a blog item and a recent blog posts widget placed on the right. It is overriding each others placement.
