Bug in filtered version

Dear org-mode users,

I would like to report a bug in filtered mode for org-mode. Take this
given file as example:
-----------
* Some heading 1
** Some header to remove                                            :sometag:
** Some header to keep                                             :othertag:
-----------

(note that last two headers are *at the same level*)

Now filter with `C-c / m sometag`. It will show only "Some header to
remove". However, if you remove that heading (with C-k) it will also
remove the next one, which is a quite surprising behavior.
Is there a way to avoid getting bitten by this?

(It also works if you filter with / t and you have a TODO followed by a
non-TODO)

Kind regards,
-- 
Ismael

Setting org-ctrl-k-protect-subtree should catch this.

You might also be interested in configuring org-show-context-detail, in
particular the value for tags-tree.

Thanks for the hints Kyle, I found something workable with the two
variables (even though not perfect, at least I won’t lose entries
without knowing it).
