There's always been a difference between a login and a reload... when you first log in, your game client has to receive all the information from the server before the UI can use it. When you reload, all the information is already stored in the client, and is available to the UI immediately. As for UPDATE_SHAPESHIFT_FORM firing or not firing, that makes sense as well -- when you first log in, you are not in any form, because you don't exist yet. When you reload, only the UI is reloading; the "physical reality" of your character and the game world does not reload along with it.
