When making pockets with sub-shapebinders, FreeCAD insists on pocketing along the z-axis.

Steps to reproduce

1. Open the attached SM-PLB03A case file: SM-PLB03A case.zip
2. make "SLIDE_IN" the active body
3. select the "vent_binder" subshapebinder in "SLIDE_IN"
4. pocket the "vent_binder"
5. observe that the pocket appears to be along the z axis as it appears in the section below the "vent binder" instead of along the y axis where I would expect it.
6. note that the "thread_holes_2" pocket, which is also based on a subshapebinder from "MAIN_CASE" works fine (but it's along the z-axis)
