Off-page connector name overwrites global net names

Hi,

I've a circuit on multiple schematic pages connected by off-page connectors to make a PCB from. When I wished to simulate that - and added some voltage sources etc.- I noticed that the off-page connector name overwrote my "0" net even if it was global. Playing with net names I've found that Off-page connectors are the highest in hierarchy followed by power nets. The "net-alias" is at the lowest level. It is always overwritten by the above two.

How can we simulate our circuit if we don't want to make two schematics, one for simulation and another for PCB?
