Possible bug in A100-D3?

One for somebody at XTZ here. I think I've spotted a bug in my A100-D3.

I've just got an AVR with pre-outs, so used the D3 as a power amp for a film.
As I was using it for film, I used the dimmer function on the D3's display for the first time.

When it's dimmed fully so the display is off, and the amp switches between class A and AB due to its temperature, then part of the display comes back on. It comes on to display the mode (A/AB), the source, and the little dot in the volume.
This stays on indefinitely, until you change the dim level.

It's not a massive problem, just a minor annoyance.

No problem.
Something else I noticed this week along very similar lines...

If you turn the amp off and back on again, it remembers its previous channel and volume. So there is clearly some memory in there not getting reset.
But the display always goes to the very brightest setting when you turn it on.
Again, just an annoyance not a major problem.

I love the amp as an amp, but it still feels rather unpolished in terms of user interface, and a couple of features I'd expect to be relatively easy to add, like HT passthrough. Maybe the option to startup at a pre-defined volume level instead of the previous level.

I'd be more than happy to test and give feedback in return for a free upgrade to the next model when it comes out
