Bootstrap form-horizontal vertical alignment of checkboxes without label text

Question

I have changed from Bootstrap 3.0.0 to 3.2.0 this morning because I needed some of the new features for my web application. Everything seemed to work as expected until I observed an issue with the vertical alignment of checkboxes in a .form-horizontal form.

An example is available at http://www.bootply.com/AYN64feYze. The markup for this minimum example is:

<div class="form-horizontal">
    <div class="form-group">
      <label class="col-sm-2 control-label">With label text</label>
          <div class="col-sm-10">
            <div class="checkbox">
              <label>
                  <input type="checkbox"> label text
              </label>
            </div>
          </div>
    </div>
  <div class="form-group">
      <label class="col-sm-2 control-label">Without label text</label>
          <div class="col-sm-10">
            <div class="checkbox">
              <label>
                  <input type="checkbox">
              </label>
            </div>
          </div>
    </div>
</div>

If a checkbox has no following text it is shifted below the row it should appear in.

Is there a solution to this problem? Since I already have the leading label I do not need a following text for my checkboxes. My current workaround is adding text to the <label> that contains the <input type="checkbox"> and use the background color as the font color to hide the text.

Thank you for your help.

I'm not sure if this will affect the rest of your form layout, but the issue seems to be resolved if you change the display attribute of <label> (currently set to inline-block) to:

label{
    display:inline;
}

Here's an updated Bootply. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
