Pincushion distortion from white balance dropper.

Found an interesting little quirk in C1 5.0.1 today and wonder if others have seen this.

I'm using a Mac 10.5.8, P65+ and the new Schneider 80 mm LS lens. When I process a file I can use the white balance eyedropper on my gray card in the picture and it works fine. Later in processing, I go to the lens correction tool and pull down the specific lens and the corrections are made. Everything works as it should.

However, I generally prefer to make lens corrections first because they sometimes influence how I crop. But if do this and then use the WB eyedropper, it induces horrible pincushion distortion!

I'm attaching before and after shots. I have already registered this with Phase One support.
