Lefty Main Hand Defaults Back to Righty on Death

When you toggle lefty mode, upon death it will be switched back to righty, despite what it says in the options menu.

What I expected:
To continue being a lefty after death

What Really Happened:
I was switched back to a righty

Possible In-Game Fixes:
-Relogging works just fine, however it's pretty inconvenient to have to relog every time you die.
-Switching back to lefty in the options menu is another option
