Displacement Wave and Embalmed creatures

I just played against a deck playing creatures with Embalm and the card Displacement Wave.  Displacement Wave returns the embalmed creatures to hand, instead of destroying them, and lets them be cast.  (I think the game treats the casting cost of embalmed creatures as 1, which makes this bug even more abusive.)

    Did the creature happen to be Gkyph Keeper?

    I just built a deck with Temmet + Glyph Keeper.  Temmet doesn't buff up the Glyph Keeper zombie token, which is why I don't think it is treated as a token and therefore can be returned to the owners hand. As far as I know Temmet buffs Sacred Cat and Labyrinth Guardian.

    Don't know if anyone has previously recorded this a bug.

    Embalmed Glyph Keepers and Honored Hydras aren't counted as tokens at the moment, so they can be returned to hand just as normal cards, and have minimal cost. The fault lies with the dummy who forgot to tick the "token" label for them.
