Hopefully I can explain this and it's easily repeatable.
It only seems to happen with a simple order of events (i.e. if you continue on adding other walls/doors etc. then come back to clean up the doors later it seems not to trigger so it's minor but I have been able to repeat it:
Using the 'line' tool with 'wall' chosen - draw a single square room (4 walls = 4 points) and double-click on the first point to 'stop' drawing
Flip to rectangle tool + choose 'door - add a single door to the room
Switch back to the 'line + wall" tools and draw the "intra door" perpendicular line (resulting in 3 LOS points, the middle point on the original wall section)
Flip to the 'select' tool and drag around the 3 points
Click 'delete selected points' with your mouse
(had to go find a video b/c it's changed since I just pressing DEL on the keyboard, so this is why I used the mouse here)
Result: it consistently deletes more than just the intra-door section.
But - if I play around and do something else then come back it seems to work as expected, only deleting within the door. Included a screen shot so you can see that the bottom of the door still shows the point from where the wall crossed it and is now orphaned as the line on the other side also got zapped but the point itself did not.

Am I messing up order-of-events or something or is this expected?
I pulled-up 'Map-2' from the DMG (that's the map in the image) and the pre-built door (the one at the top) has walls running to both points on edge of the door - is this my error, still treating wall as lines (did this change)?
