The destination parameter gets blown away

I have a hard time believing I am the only one experiencing this but I cannot see any other reports.

If I trigger a global redirect and include a destination parameter, that destination parameter gets lost.

Example:

http://mysite.com/node/18/edit?destination=somewhere

Results in:

http://mysite.com/some_alias (the destination is blown away)

I managed to fix my problem by moving the destination unset code below the $query_string building.
