Conflict with BuddyPress Groups Extras – em_content() removing $page_content

I did some debugging to check the values em-manager is receiving in
wp-content/plugins/events-manager/em-events.php

print_r($post);
print_r(array($events_page_id,
    $locations_page_id,
    $categories_page_id,
    $edit_bookings_page_id,
    $edit_events_page_id,
    $edit_locations_page_id,
    $my_bookings_page_id,
    $tags_page_id));

$content = apply_filters('em_content_pre', '', $page_content);
print_r($page_content);
print_r($content);

and the output is as follows:

 
WP_Post Object
(
    [ID] => 0
    [post_author] => 0
    [post_date] => 0
    [post_date_gmt] => 0
    [post_content] => 
    [post_title] => 
    [post_excerpt] => 
    [post_status] => publish
    [comment_status] => closed
    [ping_status] => 
    [post_password] => 
    [post_name] => 
    [to_ping] => 
    [pinged] => 
    [post_modified] => 0
    [post_modified_gmt] => 0
    [post_content_filtered] => 
    [post_parent] => 0
    [guid] => 
    [menu_order] => 0
    [post_type] => page
    [post_mime_type] => 
    [comment_count] => 0
    [filter] => raw
    [is_404] => 1
    [is_page] => 
    [is_single] => 
    [is_archive] => 
    [is_tax] => 
)

Array
(
    [0] => 24
    [1] => 
    [2] => 
    [3] => 
    [4] => 321
    [5] => 
    [6] => 
    [7] => 
)

$page_content = <h1>This is the group info page.</h1>
$content =

The change I suggest as a possible solution is an additional check for $post->ID being 0 i.e. changing line 13 of events-manager/em-events.php to:

if( empty($post) || empty($post->ID) ) return $page_content; //fix for any other plugins calling the_content outside the loop

It resolves the issue for me – but does anyone know if there are any cases this change will cause other problems?
Thanks.
