8vb Treble clef on TAB staff — and — TAB clef on standard staff

I often work with a standard staff linked to a tablature staff. In the course of performing transformations and transpositions I regularly encounter situations where a standard treble clef or 8vb treble clef displays on the TAB staff.

This result is most simply recreated with the following steps:

• New score>Guitar + Tablature
• To change the 8bv clef to a standard treble clef:
       a) click in Measure 1 of the standard staff
       b) click the Treble Clef in the Clef palette

Odd result: In addition to changing the clef on the standard staff Musescore shows a Treble clef on the TAB staff.

Logical workaround:

    a) click in Measure 1 of the tablature staff
    b) Click the TAB clef in the Clef palette

Odd result: In addition to changing the clef on the TAB staff, Musescore shows a TAB clef on the standard staff. Thus the oddity is simply reversed.

Non obvious and successful workaround: Select either errant clef; press delete. The expected clef then displays.

NOTE: On saving the score with an errant clef the .mscx file contains the following structure:

<Clef>
    <concertClefType>G8vb</concertClefType>
    <transposingClefType>G8vb</transposingClefType>
</Clef>
