I can confirm the second part of the report in build 19587, can't test in a more recent build cos of the move node crash.

It doesn't seem to be related to Simplify path or changing node modes (as in hash's video), I guess in the end those two symptoms might be related. The simplest way to reproduce:

1. create ellipse
2. convert to path - it will create 5 nodes, the first and last overlap
3. move one of the 2 overlapping nodes using Node tool, I think the top one is always the first
4. click on empty canvas twice to remove focus from the path
5. click on the path again to focus it
6. the moved node is duplicated (there are now 2 nodes there overlapping)
7. it can be repeated always moving one of the overlapping nodes, it always adds one more node to the path
