Apparently this is a known issue?

Wow, I'm not sure how I played Destiny this long without knowing this. From the article, it would seem that things don't get sent to the Postmaster until you return to orbit. Not just leave the activity, but SPECIFICALLY enter orbit. I wonder what sort of things I've lost due to this? I certainly go to orbit MOST of the time after doing something, but I guarantee there have been some instances where I've done "switch character" or "change profile" from within an activity, and surely at least SOME of those times I might have had engrams on the ground.

Also, we've all heard people claim to have lost engrams, right? Even if it hasn't happened to us personally. How many of those were because of this, I wonder?

I feel like there should be a small bit of text on the confirmation dialogue for those actions, explaining that any engrams still on the ground won't be saved until you go to orbit. It's not already there, is it?
