Grid snap auto off while selecting

In 2010, I thought I remember the grid snap would automatically turn off when I was in a command for selecting stuff, then after completing my selection, the grid snap would automatically turn back on.  For instance, if I wanted to isolate a layer, with grid snap on and set to 1/2x1/2", the object I would try to select would be in the middle of all the grid points and my curser would just jump around it.  I'd have to F9 to turn off grid snap, then turn it back on when I was done selecting.  Does this ring a bell for anyone?

close, but things like matchprop still leave the grid snap on during command.

The change to the snap setting came in R2012.
