Opening a local element causes a loop

When opening a local element the element is opened over and over again
in a non-stoppable loop.
We have a EditorListener that implements IPartListener. In the
partOpened method we synchronize the local file with the host file by
using .setContents(). Since RDz 7.1.1.1 this has created a the loop
problem.
We know that the problem is in .setContents() that triggers a new open
event to partOpened.
InputStream inStream = zosFile.getContents();
inputFile.setContents(inStream, true, true, new NullProgressMonitor());
inStream.close();
We ve implemented code to prevent the loop from occurring, but we feel
that the problem should be fixed in the .setContents() method.
Please note that the loop problem did not occure when having the
RDz751CummulativeFixesAug9 installed.

This RFE is opened on recommendation from Yun Wilson due to PMR 27105 010 678
