The following reply was made to PR bin/48341; it has been noted by GNATS.

This could probably be made clearer in the documentation though. While I disagree in the first part, I agree in: - the docmentation should clearly state, what "none" means (changing the active slice) and how to prevent it, if unwanted (selecting the slice and pressing 'S') - afterwards bug 48341 can be closed Thanks Heiner
