Strange behavior with a pagelayout override.

I have a pagelayout override that matches on a section id, which works as intended, in that I go to the pagelayout_alt when I navigate to that section.

However, I've noticed something weird happening:

if I navigate from a page that uses pagelayout_alt to a page that has no section id - like user/* or extension/* - it ends up using the pagelayout_alt template.

But, if I navigate from a page that has a section id not matching on the override, and I go to a page with no section id (user/login again) it uses the pagelayout template.

It's almost as if it maintains the section_id if it isn't overwritten?

Or, am I missing something?

This sounds like a bug. Can you post a bugreport about it?

I think ez remembers what section you are on, so that if you enter a broken url or use other modules then content, the right design will show up.
So content with no section id will probably get the same effect.
