Is there something wrong with regex and dest_content filters in Splunk App for Stream?

We're testing Splunk App for Stream. If I go into Streams Config and clone the http stream then add a regex dest_content filter to the cloned stream it seems to ignore the filter and capture all data. As though it's ignoring the regex value. If I switch it from "Regular Expression" to "Contains" in the filter it works as expected. Regex seems to work fine for other fields like uri, just not the dest_content.

Here's the filter:
Term: http.sc-content
Comparison: Regular Expression
Value: anystring
Match All: Checked
I have Match Filters set to All.

With this set, it captures all data (and puts us over our license again).

Yes. Sorry you had to find this, but yes it is broken. It will be fixed hopefully in the next minor version (6.2).

It would probably be good to add this one to the known issues. I spent some time trying to figure out what I was doing wrong. Is there an eta for 6.2?

Thanks!
