For the time being you can just go to the "System Console > Configuration > Purge All Cache" and it should clear the status without requiring you to restart or anything.
I am still trying to track what causes a user to get stuck, it might be slower for me to find the issue than it would for a core dev, but once I find it I will post a PR to fix it.
it might be better if u report this as a separated issue to be looked at.
