Thank you for the pointer to this -- clearly I missed it in my initial 
search of the mailing list archive, but I agree it appears to be the 
same issue. I'm glad to know that somebody has reproduced it.

I had a difficult time reproducing this one reliably. If I remember 
correctly, I could only reproduce it when I set a key binding to 
org-store-link. It is a binding I never use, I only set it because it 
was in seemingly every org config on the planet when I first started 
with orgmode, and I certainly don't explicitly invoke it when processing 
in bulk.

Looking back at my last emails, I realize I have submitted a pretty 
lousy bug report -- sorry for that! The init.el I used for debugging is 
attached, though it relies on straight and use-package for reasons of 
time and convenience. The org settings as-written have reproduced both 
behaviors reliably for me so far, and removing the "!" from 
org-todo-keywords has fixed them both. I am a bit pressed for time at 
the moment, but later today or over the weekend I will put together a 
more vanilla init.el that hopefully reproduces both problems (or reveals 
a package conflict...). I have also attached my test file, though it is 
not substantively different from the one you used yourself in the 
previous thread.

Best regards,

Alan
