Hi, @snez. Thanks for reporting this issue. We've created internal ticket MAGETWO-70389 to address this issue.

For what it is worth, I think I have tracked this down as the route cause (a long with #6983) for some issues around gift message fields in basket not loading as the jQuery has an error. This doesn't explain why other elements do work - but fixing this solved the issue after a considerable amount of time looking in to it.

I am also having this issue, does anyone know of a work around? Thanks.
