row grid + team member == weird behavior / bug???

I think I might be going a bit insane. Here’s what I’ve narrowed my problem down to:

1. I create a page with a right sidebar which contains the search widget.
2. I put a grid row element on the page using the advanced layout editor. The grid row is configured with 2 cells, 1/4 + 3/4
3. I put a team member element in the right most column of the grid row.
4. I duplicate the gridrow 8 times. (I don’t think 8 is significant…I think the trick is 3 or more)
5. I save and view the page…9 (the number seems to need to be 3 or more) “John Does” aligned correctly, the side bar correctly displayed.
6. I edit the page, change the first team member name to “XXXX YYYYY” and title to “Chief Executive Officer”
7. Save and view — the side bar is truncated grid row 3-9 are full screen and the search widget is at the bottom, seemingly in the footer.

8. If I go back in and remove the team member information (name and title) from grid row 1, save and view, the page is still broken
9. If I go in and delete all grid rows then I get the side bar back and can start rebuilding the page.
