Stacking Area Chart with gap produces strange result

Hi,
We have a chart with a DateTime x-axis and values on the y-axis. In our data we can have gaps between dates that we don't want to show. We add a datapoint with a null value which is fine for all charts except a StackingArea chart.

See example ... http://jsplayground.syncfusion.com/Sync_qlkbmzkw

Can anything be done about this ?

Cheers ... Rob.
