I tested this out last night and again this morning, and things mostly appear ok. But it looks as though there's another bug with author/work stable identifiers: they have been wiped from the records I'm revising. They do not save when entered into the metadata mask, and although I can add them manually to the xml, if I make any further changes to the metadata and save, they get erased again.
