GUI animate callback question (Issue-3124) (DEF-3949) (SOLVED)

Questions
#1

Hi, sorry for bad english,

When animation on node with gui.animate starts and callback function sets, next before animation completes calling gui.cancel_animation() for this node or starts another animation with same anim property as first animation - in profiler Lua.Refs increase and never decrease. If we execute this test without callback function Lua.Refs - stays same and everything’s ok.
Same test with go.animate releases Lua.Refs as expected.

I think ref to callback function not released with gui.animate.

Question - is it normal behavior or bug? Correct me if my test have errors and I work with animations wrong.
Editor version: 1.2.155, Channel: editor-alpha

atach simple demo - one click - start animation, next click stop animation if playing.
clicking increases Lua.Refs and never decrease
