Yup, I've had that happen to me before. I think it might have something
to do with the export/import function. I've never had the problem just
plain saving, but once in a while (very rare, so I can't be 100% sure)
when I've use the import/export function i've had that problem.
Now, I always save my objects as newer versions AKA: Model1.1
Model1.2
Model1.3 etc...
