This is invalid.  I wouldn't call this a "feature" that earlier versions 
(how earlier? 1.X?) supported, rather a plain bug.  The only workaround 
seems to consist in fixing the data.  If you're planning to move to 2.3, 
I suggest you use the latest, i.e. 2.3.31 (2.3.32 will be out by the end 
of the week or so), and not 2.3.21.
