Thanks for the report. It is similar to another couple assigned to me right now. I am working on another bevel bug at the moment but will get to this eventually.

These are not so much bugs as cases where user desires tool to make different choices. I agree that the choices he wants would look better in the cases in the test example.
This one got a little better with the last big batch of bevel changes, but still does not do what the user wants.
Two problems to fix:

need to see why offset propagation logic fails to use the same offset for similar looking vertex configurations
add special case code to make the "meet plane" for welded edge case with two unbeveled edges passing through them be in the same plane as those two edges. This would need testing to make sure it is the desired output for a wide range of similar configurations.
