I agree, shitty bug but not the end of the world. The official power supply also seems reasonable priced and it's really difficult to find a good USB power supply which is capable of providing such currents in a stable enough way (that's also the official reason why they did an official one and I don't doubt it). So if you want to avoid issues of all sorts simply go with the official one.
