TextField getting content cleared out on backspace

Question

I have set-up in a storyboard a view that contents two textfields: one with secure option turn on and an other without.

I have set-up the content of those textfields in the viewDidLoad method of the associated viewController. If I select the textField with secure note turned on then select the other one and click the backspace all its content of this latter gets clear out. It is not happening if I select directly the textfield with no secure option the first time.

Does anyone have a clue of this behaviour?

It looks like this is a bug that appeared on iOS6 and related to changes introduce with UITextField where other people have also observed changes in behavior between iOS5 and iOS6; see this post: (Backspace functionality in iOS 6 & iOS 5 for UITextfield with 'secure' attribute)
