<![CDATA[Adjust Anchors extension crashed RF4]]>Posting here as a cautionary

Installed the extension using Mechanic 2. It didn't populate with my active UFO. I typed "A" and "E" in an empty "Bases" field. Those glyphs were deleted from my UFO. I Revert to Saved and RF froze. Force Quit ... froze my machine.

I had to replace A and E from a previous saved version.
