Why does the New Branch dialog sometimes use the same name as the remote, and sometimes not? [message #1860471]

I often use "Switch to" and select a branch I hadn't checked out before. Sometimes it fills in the new branch name field with the same name as the remote branch, which is exactly what I want. Sometimes it fills in a string like "task_15-xxxxxx", where "xxxx" is the name of my current Mylyn task. I never want this, although I do definitely want to use Mylyn.

Is this something I have to address with the Mylyn community?

I see that this was caused by the "Mylyn Teams Support" artifact. I managed to get rid of that, and now I've gotten back what I want it to do.
