I'm not sure how it's expected to behave here actually. @Campbell Barton (campbellbarton), mind having a look?

This is tricky... it can be supported however currently its intentionally not supported.

See: T39418

There are some cases where you want to split a very broken face in two, as in the report above. And other times you wan't to cut the face as is done in this report.

Since both are valid used, we better have an option for this.

  • This is more of a TODO (not for 2.72 release)

Fix the code which caused the error:
rBb7174c9320c5e3446d8237059841d982279e32e9

However the example given will still fail since its intentional.
