[Orgmode] Bug: Scatter doubles up on SCHEDULED items [7.4]

[James Shuttleworth]

Hi,
  I love the idea of the new bulk scatter command, but it's giving me
  a problem.  When used, it adds an extra SCHEDULED item to entries
  rather than change the current one.  Maybe this is expected
  behaviour and I just don't "get it", but I don't think so.  

  If I can give any more information that might be useful, I'm happy to.

  Thanks for org and thanks in advance for any help with this!

Regards,

James
