A bug in TFS 2012 alerts system

I opened a bug yesterday on Microsoft Connect site regarding a problem we noticed in the alerts system of TFS 2012. When you create a "A work item in this team project is changed" alert with a filter on the State or Reason field the Changes operator does not work and the alert actually work for any change in the work item. The Changes filter work for other fields (http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/788661/alert-filter-does-not-work-when-using-operator-changes-on-the-state-and-reason-fields).

The good news is that the bug is already fixed in Update 3 which is soon to be released.

I really appreciate quick response by customer care. This is what I call support!
