GridView's removeDisplaced animation gets applied when no elements are removed

Please try the attached test qith qmlscene. After the images are loaded, click on any part of the window: this will cause the deletion of a few items, and we should see the following transitions:

1) the first 9 items should begin to scale down
2) after this, the remaining items should move to fill the empty spaces, with an animation

However, for some weird reason as soon as you click the mouse button the 9 elements which should get removed are immediately removed, then are being laid out again with an animation, and only finally they get scaled down.
Moreover, once the scaling animation is over, the remaining items are repositioned without any animation.
