Session.forceStoreResync doesn't check persistMessages

We set the "ForceResync" to true and "PersistMessages" to false. Attempting connect to a target with a different sequence number, we get a logout message with the expected sequence number and the following is called:

(in Session.java):
private void forceStoreResync(int nextTargetMsgSeqNum, int nextSenderMsgSeqNum )

in that method, a heartbeat message is created for each missing sequence number and it's stored in the Message Store without checking if persisteMessage is true.

Is there a reason for this or this a bug? If it's a bug, I'd suggest this fix:

Line 1601:

• if (actualSenderMsgSeqNum < nextSenderMsgSeqNum) {
  + if (actualSenderMsgSeqNum < nextSenderMsgSeqNum && persistMessages ) {

Thank you.
