Yep, exact same problem and your suggestion fixes it: Using one frontend
without your patch, one with, running recent trunk. On the frontend
without the patch, the 'Record anyway' doesn't do anything, nor does the
'Add Override' option. The backend reschedules, but nothing changes and
no overrides appear in the 'Set Priorities' screen. On the one with the
patch, the behaviour is fixed and working completely as expected.
