this is old bug from 1.19.2.x (maybe older) that breaks reference path

Issue:
Using Receiver Target trigger that starts with toggle:<something>, clothing:<> or hair:<> breaks reference by adding said prefix.
Potentially this could be true for any trigger (Receiver Target) that starts with something:<> (i didn't test every possible combination)

How to reproduce:
-add person
-equip some package clothes/hairstyle (it could be local loose files, same issue)
-add quick UIButton or UIToggle
-add trigger to toggle said item (ReceiverAtom: Person Receiever: geometry Receiver Target: toggle:<item>)
-example: Person > geometry > clothing:Vince.Clothing_PleatedSkirtV2T.2:/Custom/Clothing/Female/Vince/Pleated Skirt V2T/Pleated Skirt V2T.vam
-save scene and open package builder
-add saved scene > prep.package > look at broken reference > finalize package > look at missing package errors

fix/workaround:
i don't know...don't use those triggers, use presets instead?

   ]
}

EDIT:
I'm 100% sure that i've seen this toggle: dependency before (but i always thought maybe old bug from early hub days or something)
But than after looking at dependecies here:
i have noticed this:
toggle:GeeMan55.Underwire_Bra.latestMISSING Not found on Hub
toggle:Skippy.Skippys_CumClothing.latest​
MISSING Not found on Hub
quick peak inside meta and that points to this package (created using v1.19.2.2):
That's why i decided to confirm if bug still works with v1.20.77.9

I think I'm getting the same thing with Skippy's clothing. Not in a saved scene but only after creating a var. Even if the user has skippy installed and the clothing is on the atom, when they use their own appearance preset, the trigger/button to enable the clothing breaks.
 
I have this fixed in upcoming 1.21.2 release.
