Android 0.9.27 service killed on app swipe

Description
In 0.9.26 one could just swipe the app away in the task manager, since it uses a (notification the) service (it) will be kept in memory in background running just fine.
Now in 0.9.27 swiping the app away will kill the service too, so one needs to keep the app opened all the time.
Testing the official build ( Outside I2P (0.9.27) here https://geti2p.net/en/download#android ) it did not have this problem at the first try, but it did several hours later in another test.
App is excepted in Doze/battery app, happens in Android 5.1.1 and Nougat Preview 4, notification even stays on after the service is killed (!!!) and you can't dismiss it (yes, you can hide it).
Rebooting the device will have the app running in background at start just fine, until you open it, swiping away will kill it then.
