Bug or new feature?

Hello,

With the just release 2.6 version I did found that something that  
worked well in the previous version won't work as smoothly than before.
It's related to the "ask" command.

Under 2.5.1:

on myCommand
   ask question "What do you look for?" as sheet
   if it is empty or the result is "Cancel" then
     do nothing
   else
     do something
   end if
end myCommand

worked fine when the user pressed the "Cancel" button

but does not in 2.6 when pressing the "Cancel" button just because  
"do something" is executed.

I've to rewrite it that way:

on myCommand
   ask question "What do you look for?" as sheet
   if it is empty or the result is "Cancel" or the result is empty then
     do nothing
   else
     do something
   end if
end myCommand

In my opinion, after having a sight at the documentation, it is a  
bug. Am I wrong?

Regards,

ÉrIC
