Surely something can be done to make this more intuitive.

But...If you do indeed right-click/drag around the item, it will merge as expected.

So maybe not a "bug" really...But definitely not very user friendly.
There is an option/action to "View items in lanes" which displays parallel items if the track height allows it.
