Description

To reproduce,
1. configure distributed builds and agents
2. force a build which is successful
3. release the project and select a Build Environment with a different agent than was used to build the project before

I would expect that the Build Environment selection is used with whatever Installations and Build Agent Group is configured.

The actual behavior is that it goes the the last agent that was used to build the project.

Reading the comments on CONTINUUM-2043, this is apparently correct, but the UI does not match the behavior.

I suppose the Build Environment selection needs to be disabled and the documentation clarified to explain this.
