this didn't use to happen w/ the previous (RC) release. am i missing
something, or is it a known regression?

cheers;

hello all,

earlier i wrote:

this i believe is a GeoTools (client-side) related issue and not a GeoServer
one. i'm rephrasing the question and posting it to the geotools mailing
list.

apologies for the noise + cheers;
