Problems deleting nodes while in 'Node Edit'

EDIT - All this applies to closed vectors.

Deleting node(s) while in Node edit can give unexpected results:

  1. If a vector has three (3) nodes, and you try to delete one, the operation silently fails.
    EXPECT - message telling the user that a vector must have at least 3 nodes.

  2. If you multi-select nodes to delete, and there would be less that 3 nodes remaining, only SOME of the nodes are deleted. 3 nodes remain.
    EXPECT - message similar to 1), AND no nodes deleted.

  3. If you select ALL the nodes in a vector and delete them, some random 3 of them will remain.
    EXPECT - as a special case exception to the above, if ALL the nodes have been selected, then just delete the entire vector.

I tried this & could not make a 3 node curve that behaved this way, so I thought maybe he means a closed vector. That was it. Open vectors make you keep 2 nodes.

You can however, make a 2 node closed vector ??
