trading armies bug

[unmerged(58898)]

hi on my siam aar i brought three divisons off japan yet two them i could not control due to an event that needs to happen.
i thought it may be because there could be a divison maximum and so deleted 2 divisions yet still couldnt use them. i think it may be due to an event that the japanese have to do.
is there a way where i can get these two divisions and replace my two disbaded GARS plus some brigades as i missed them for many months.
for full details go to http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?p=6009512#post6009512

i posted this on the general forum but realised it was a bug aswell.
any way to get my divisions back through trade,editing or cheating
thanks

Please report this as a bug as per stickied instructions.

When divisions are locked until an event has fired to unlock them, you will have a permanent problem if the units change ownership. The events in this case will still be for Japan, so now that you own the divisions, they will never unlock.

IMHO, either of two things should happen:
1) Locked divisions should not have been traded at all.
2) If they are traded, the lock should have been lifted during the transfer of ownership.
