Hi Rick,

I've added your report to the bug that I think most closely matches  
what you're describing: https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/ 
show_bug.cgi?id=11675#c13

Unfortunately, there's quite a bit of work involved in fixing the  
'false-positives popping into NOW' bugs. We need to redesign how the  
sharing layer defines edits to items.

Thanks for investigating the bug. I will keep the Users list posted  
about the prioritization of the pop-to-NOW bugs.
