 (with twenty fourteen)

 - Open Customizer
 - Open Header image section
 - Click on previously uploaded, theme default, or new uploaded image
 - current header updates in customizer controls and preview
 - changing header image activates the save and publish button, but after
 pressing it and closing customizer the header image is not changed
 - when returning to the customizer the newly uploaded image is not
 present, however it does appear in the media library
 - after switching themes and the switching back all images do show up


 (in another theme which has several default images and no header text)
 - Open Customizer
 - Open Header image section
 - Click on previously uploaded, theme default, or new uploaded image
 - current header updates in customizer controls
 - customizer preview does not update image, even after triggering a
 preview refresh with another control
 - changing header image activates the save and publish button, but after
 pressing it and closing customizer the header image is not changed
