'edit->grid origin' sign error when 'Y increases up' is set

  1. I have been working with 'Y increases up'. [Conforming to usual practice for PCB design tools I have used before... Am new to kicad.]
  2. Setting grid origin to for example 0,3.1 actually puts the grid origin at 0,-3.1. [Perhaps a simple error converting the user input type-in for edit->gridorigin to internal coordinates?]
