In addition to various other folks that had reported in, I had various macs,
both real and virtualized, run this test in a loop. For weeks - without
reproducing the issue once [1]. Since this can only be reproduced on
Alexander and Konstantin's laptops, running an older macos [2] and running
MDM, I'm for now considering this issue to not be reproducible outside of that
environment. That's deeply unsatisfying, but I just don't see what else I
could do.

RMT, note that there were two issues in this thread, the original report by
Tom has been addressed (in e9a3615a522). I guess the best thing would be to
split the open items entry into two?

[1] Rather impressed at how stable our tests are right now, I've barely hit
any independent issues. That definitely wasn't always the case.

[2] I tried various versions of macos, without success
