Open question: Did work for 5.13? Thus, is it a regression or was it "always" the case?

It will be fixed in https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/pull/11326, but we might need another fix for the next release. We need to evaluate.

Issue https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues/11378 seems to contradict this one.

Also happens with v5.13:
