How to reproduce the problem:-
 Draw a rectangle A,
 Draw a bigger rectangle B
 Cover A with B
 Select both A and B
 Apply a ClipView - ctrl-shift-c
 Remove ClipView  - ctrl-shift-c
 Rectangle B is restored
 Rectangle A is now a shape, not a rectangle

This a nuisance, as if you undo the ClipView to modify it the shape is not 
constrained when you drag it by a corner.

The same problem occurs if A is an ellipse.
Curiously, however, if you only partially cover the smaller object it is 
restored properly when the ClipView is removed.
