Registry not cleared after removing channel

Hello,

We are stumbling upon an issue where the registry doesn't appear to be removed/cleared when a channel is removed.
We are saving some data to the registry like autologin and first-time launch. According to the docs this should be deleted after the (private) channel is removed from a device. Even after restarting the device when the channel is removed the registry still returns data when the channel is added again.

"Registry data is removed only when the application explicitly removes it, the user uninstalls the application, which remove the registry for the application, or the user performs a factory reset, which removes the registry for all applications."

Anyone else having this problem?
The problem seems to occur on all devices we tested (firmware 7.7)
