Guangdong still terra incognita even after ceded to Portugal

I did a search, but I couldn't find this already listed, so here goes:

Playing Portugal in 1.05, I got a message that "the peasant in macao are revolting". I went, huh, where is Macoa? I haven't discovered it yet! Sure enough, I sent a conquistador over there to explore it and, voila, I find a provence of mine that I didn't even know I had! Seems to me if you are going to "inherit" this provence, it should become "explored" even you haven't discovered it in the normal fashion yet.

I didn't have any problem with it being terra incognita in my game, but it was only by chance that I noticed that I owned it when I was looking to move an explorer up the coast. Really nice of those chinese to give it to me before I discovered them.

I'm pretty sure this is on the bug list. It's a general problem where if you get an unknown province via event, you don't "know of it".

I guess this needs expanding to cover provinces gained by war too.

It does work in the case of war. I have had Spain hand over TPs in the new world in areas that I didn't know about. The provence then becomes known.
