Vanished Seal Away still disables Creatures [Investigating]

My opponent played a Seal Away and another support, which I can not remember.
Both had 2 shields and were placed near each other.
I combined gems and both supports were eliminated - lucky me I thought.
But my first two creatures were still disabled - until the end of the match.
As my opponent did not have any support in play and all his creatures were disabled by my Hixus, there was definitely no source which could disable my creatures.

PS: this is already the new 2.7.1

    I had the same happen to me in Across Ixalan. My opponent cast Seal Away which disabled my first two creatures thanks to the treasure token (artifacts, thus historic, thus two creatures that get disabled). I popped his Seal Away, but my creatures stayed disabled. It cost me the win <10 rounds objective and also nearly cost me the game.

    How did you get rid of the seal away? Exiling supports (I.E. Teferi ability #3) almost always leaves the support's effect with no way to remove it. Been reported a lot and they don't seem interested in fixing it, it seems. Actually destroying the support generally works as intended, but there is always room for new bugs.

    I can confirm with 100% certainty that this just happened to me.
    Etali and Zepalta were my only 2 critters on the field.
    Elspeth (my opponent PW) cast a Sealed Away in the corner, I couldn't reach it but almost had enough to pop Ajiani's ultimate (Ajiani I). 
    Next turn I popped the ultimate and destroyed pretty much all of her supports and activate/exert gems.
    My 2 dinos were still disabled.
    Eventually I'd cast a 3rd and 4th dino to exile Zepalta but Etali remains disabled, even though Elspeth has nothing on the board but a treasure or 2.

    Time to bump this thread...just spent most of an HOD match with both of my big guys disabled after matching away a seal away. Somehow managed to still win by chipping away with my lil 4/5 up top, and finally Clutched one of my opponent’s creatures to start swapping guys out, but it was a brutal 45 turn match that I won by the skin of my teeth. Can confirm seal away was definitely matched and not rebuked or exiled. Major sucky bug.
