Accounts disappearing in Xcode 9

Question

I upgraded to Xcode 9.0 recently and for some reason my accounts doesn't get stored in the Accounts panel anymore. Xcode stores them if I close the program, but NOT when I restart the computer.

I guess this is a bug and not a new feature, but are there any hacks or settings that I could change to prevent my accounts from disappearing (except from never turn off the computer that is)?

For the ones who may concern I've experienced a quite similar bug. In my case, some accounts disappeared and some others just "loose" the authentication with a "please relogin message". Even if I re-insert the credentials they disappear every time I quit and reopen Xcode.

Inspecting Console.app, I noticed that the problem seems related to a "not signed" binary regarding Xcode internal tools:

Reinstalling a complete clean macOS 10.13.4 and Xcode 9.3 was not helpfull. The problem was still there.

After struggling a lot with this bug, I found that after launching the previous version of Xcode 9.2 and configured the AppleIDs on this version results in a working one even with Xcode 9.3. Now AppleIDs appear correctly configured and working without any issues.
