Isn't all that exactly what QMX is supposed to be doing, according to the description of these features in the operating manual? ITU Region 2 is Americas. The US 60m allocation is 5 spot channels. When "RX outside band" is OFF, the VFO frequencies are restricted to what is in band. In the case of 60m, that means exactly what you said, jumping between the 5 available US 60m channel frequencies. If you switch RX outside band ON, then you can tune the VFO freely but since your "Band Limits" are set to "ITU Region 2" then you can still only transmit on the spot channels; in any case where you are out of band (defined by the US band limits) then you cannot transmit, and a 'B' is displayed (B is for Band limit Breach).?
So isn't all this correct? This?is what is supposed to happen, when you enabled band limits on ITU Region 2, etc...?
The other point about QMX not restarting by itself after a firmware update is not something I have ever seen; but if the QMX functions otherwise normally I'm not sure I'd worry too much about it, it's not too onerous to live with.?

Tuning the VFO on 60m Band is broken with 1.00.23, at least on my midband QMX here. All other bands are fine, but on 60m the QRG will jump in erratic steps between 5.4Mhz and 4MHz and I can go down to 3.x MHz (and maybe even farther, haven't tried due to the lack of a 10 or even 100kHz step size).

Seems to be related to band limits. ITU2 in my case. When I enable the RX offband setting, I can tune as before on 60m but now there is a letter B being displayed next to the QRG for the whole range of the 60m band except for some magic QRGs: 5.332MHz and 5.348MHz and 5.373MHz and 5.405MHz
?
This can be worked around by setting the band limit to None.
