Hello Douglas,
We know about that issue.
It will be fixed in the future. I cannot give you an ETA, but I will notify you when the fix is ready.

Although the bug has not been fixed yet, you can use the Gantt API to keep the placeholder task at the bottom and do not allow vertically reordering it or assign child tasks to it.
