Comment:

 I would like to say that I have this same bug appearing on my site.  I'm
 running 2.1.3.   I'll run through my steps:

 1) Write Page
 2) Enter title
 3) enter content
 4) uncheck "allow comments" and "allow pings"
 5) set "Page status" to "Published"
 6) scroll down, add custom field (whether or not I've already created it,
 I enter the values here)
 7) click "Apply Custom Field"
 8) scroll back up, hit "Publish"
 9) the new Page does NOT appear in the "Pages" list.  Instead, it shows up
 in the "Posts" list.  Shows up as "Unpublished", title is changed to
 "Draft created on [date] at [time]"

 Now, if I create the Page *without* a custom value, I have no problem.
 It'll save as a Page, and then I can go back in and add the custom field
 and everything is fine.  But it sure adds some unnecessary steps.
