RemoteControl RemoteAdministrator.h ASSERT always hit ASSERT((_keyCallback == nullptr) ^ (callback == nullptr));

Hello,

When I enable build type debug on R5 Thunder with R5 ThunderNanoServices, this ASSERT in RemoteAdministrator.h is always hit on the second time of activating the RemoteControl plugin.

What seems to be happening is for the first activation of RemoteControl plugin, the ASSERT is fine because _keyCallback is nullptr since the RemoteAdministrator has just been created. However, when deactivated and then activated a second time, the ASSERT is hit because for some reason _keyCallback is not nullptr.

It seems RemoteAdministrator is not destroyed when the RemoteControl plugin is deactivated. Is this the intended behaviour or a bug?
Or do you believe the issue is something else?

Here is the stack trace at the fail:

===== $$ [3271]: ASSERT [RemoteAdministrator.h:436] ((_keyCallback == nullptr) ^ (callback == nullptr))
[<...>/usr/lib/libThunderCore.so.5]:[DumpCallStack]:[68]

Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks.

If I add the following calls to set the variables back to the expected nullptr in RemoteControl.cpp Deinitialize() it fixes the issue:

        admin.Callback(static_cast<IKeyHandler*>(nullptr));
        admin.Callback(static_cast<IWheelHandler*>(nullptr));
        admin.Callback(static_cast<IPointerHandler*>(nullptr));
        admin.Callback(static_cast<ITouchHandler*>(nullptr));

Are these calls or similar missing from the implementation, or is there some other bug happening in my build?
Thanks.
