For some reason when I click a formspec button_exit the on_player_receive_fields callback is being
called twice, first as an ordinary button and then again including fields["quit"] == "true"
This anomally must have been introduced recently as it has broken a previously working mod of mine
Should I fix my mod to work with this new behavior or would this be considered a formspec bug?

I should have set this up years ago. But it's no tale of woe.

That was intended IIRC. You should check for fields.quit first on your callback, and if it's not set, check other fields.

ESC counts as "quit", so it's good that it sends a quit event. That's the whole point of this feature; so mods can check when the formspec is closed.

The 'quit' field will indeed be useful but I fail to see why the exit button needs to submit twice.
