1.0.5 can't target Aether Beam on myself

With Meta / Spellcraft at 5/5, it's safe for me to stand on my own Aether Beam "trap", and standing on it ensures no stupid monster goes & disarms it prematurely.

In earlier versions, this was a fine strategy for times when you suddenly find yourself surrounded, like some Pride vestibules and when you trigger some kinds of traps.

In 1.0.5, I'm asked "Are you sure?" and then I say "Yes" and then nothing happens. The game fails to create an Aether Beam trap after I confirm that yes, I do what to do the thing that I'm trying to do.

Can't self-target Aether Breach either.

I think there are some issues with self-targeting in general in 1.0.5, I have the same problem with alchemist bombs.

It was really hard getting my current lich to Cauterize without self-targetting. Some close calls taming piromancers...
