Villagers no longer keep resources after re-tasking

I miss-clicked the other day and tasked a villager who had food into wood but I quickly realized and re-tasked him to food again and I saw that he no longer had food. I wanted to make sure so I tested it a few times and it happened in all of them, the vil with a resource lost it right after tasking him to a new resource.

This was one of the changes for DE that was really good and helpful, so I'm wondering if they made the decision to change it back to how it was or if it's a new bug that popped up.
