2 entries for 1 object in XML Editor

Hi Friends, I was just using the XML Editor to try and help someone in a forum. Completely unrelated to their problem, I noticed that 2 entries are being created for each object, in the XML. I've never noticed that before.
Have I inadvertently changed some option that might be causing this? Because wouldn't this kind of behavior result in file size that's double what it's supposed to be?
Just making up a test file, in case anyone wants it. And doing that, I noticed that it's only happening if the Fill and Stroke dialog is open. After closing the F/S dialog however, it's still happening. Wow, and sometimes adding 3 or 4 entries for each object! But if F/S dialog is not open when the file is opened, it doesn't happen.
At first I thought this was something I did wrong. But with F/S dialog being involved, now I wonder if it's a bug? I searched in LP and didn't find anything similar. But there's a good chance any existing report uses terminology that I don't understand or recognize.
Windows 7 Pro, 64-bit, Inkscape 0.92.1, 64-bit, exe installer. I can test in 0.92pre3, 64-bit, 7z version and 0.91, 32-bit, 7z version, if it would be helpful.
What else can I give you, if necessary?
Hhmm, another new file doesn't show this. Curious. Well, fwiw :-)
Thanks, brynn

It's probably this known bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1251056

Thanks Maren!
Oh yes, it did start happening when I had 3 instances open. I added a comment about the F/S dialog, in case it might help.
Thanks again :-)
