Thanks to both of you for looking at this. One of the great things about this system is the responsiveness of the founders to this type of problem. At least I know that it wasn't something dumb I was doing (still on the learning curve for RM and other apps). It does seem that these GE/Jasco combined dimmer/lights provide some special challenges. They are great when they work and seem quite popular, so I thought it was worth pointing out something that was causing me frustration. Hope it does get sorted out. I feel a little like a patient, lying in my hospital bed, while the physicians have gone outside to discuss my prognosis. Kinda hoping it's not terminal 
Meanwhile here' s the official position if anyone else is searching for an answer: (I should point out given the title of the post this behavior proceeded the present 2.05 hub update for me)
A small tip from my observations - if you are using simple lighting, be patient, it can take a little while before the automation starts working with these (a few minutes in my case) don't know why, but its an observation. Once working it's very fast and reliable.
