Navigation tools are disabled in editor mode

Question

I am using Flexviewer 3.6 & ArcGIS Server 10.1.  I have a map containing the Navigation widget and the Edit widget.  If not editing all nav functions work, when I open the the Edit widget, the zoom-in/zoom-out buttons in the nav widget are greyed out and cannot be activated.  When I close the Edit widget it all works again.  Both widgets are ESRI's out of the box, unmodified.  Any ideas (and am I the only one with this problem)?

You can see the same behavior in the Edit widget sample at http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-viewer/live/index.html?config=apps/config-edit.xml

All the mouse and keyboard navigation is still available, for example:* Press Shift and click and drag to draw a rectangle around an area and zoom in. 
* To zoom out, press Alt and Shift when drawing the rectangle.
* see https://developers.arcgis.com/flex/api-reference/com/esri/ags/Map.html for more.

Why is it disabled?  If no good reason, can it be enabled (or is it a bug)?
