Did the behavior of "Deactivating this entry deactivates children" change with 6.5.1? CE seems to deactivate the parent before deactivating children now.

Example:
Parent alloc flags that are used by children.
When deactivating parent, children entry is not deactivated first. Script in children entry cannot find flags as they have been dealloc-ed and tries accessing restricted memory.
Program crashes.

It has always been like this

setActive(false) will first deal with the originator, and then call setActive for the the children
