Unable to clear text with backspace

In this demo (same as my code) Once you select an item from the list it is impossible to clear it or backspace the text.

Hello Wayne,

This is a known issue, that is already addressed in the latest internal build of Kendo UI. You can download it from your account.

I also need this fix.  Can you please explain how to "download the fix from your account?"

 

Thanks,

Hello John,

To download the latest internal please login in your Telerik Account, click on Products & Subscriptions ->  "Latest internal builds". You should be navigated to a dropdown from which to choose the product and download.

Thank you.  I downloaded the internal build and you can clear the text now but if the user starts typing again, the autocomplete doesn't re-query the datasource with the new value the user entered.  example code below:

$scope.locationDescriptionDataSource = {
      transport: {
        read: {
          dataType: "jsonp",
          url: configService.apiRootUrl + "api/trainingTravelLocations",
          data: {
            term: function () {
              return $("#locationDescription").data("kendoAutoComplete").element[0].value;
            },
          }
        }
      }
    };

 $scope.locationDescriptionOptions = {
      dataSource: $scope.locationDescriptionDataSource,
      filter: "contains",
      minLength: 3,
      dataTextField: "location",
      primitive: true
    };

<input kendo-auto-complete id="locationDescription" name="locationDescription" k-options="locationDescriptionOptions" data-bind="value: locationDescription" />

Hello John,

I believe that the described problem does not exists in the latest official release - Q1 2015 SP1 (2015.1.408). The online demos uses that version. Here is a screencast that shows that the widget filters the source when the text is changed. Let me know if I am missing something.
