"Keep in Key" Unchecking

Hello,

When I try to add fixtures from multiple libraries, I click keep in key, then choose another library, add another fixture and it seems to randomly unassign "keep in key" from certain fixtures when I hit "remove unused entries" or sometimes just when I change keys.

I've attached a short video showing what's going on.

This is happening because the Updates preference for setting for how keys are loaded is set to replace entries always. When the key is loaded, any existing entries that match the incoming are replaced. (the new entries in the library do not have keep in key set)

The latest build v5.9.3 (17028.1) now will preserve Keep In Key settings, even when an entry is updated by loading a new key from the library.
