Noticed this bug yesterday.
I was playing Persia and Monty decided to invade , on my counter invasion i captured a city, and i was razing it but then realized i might as well sell it to another AI since I'm rushing rifles anyway.
So when I clicked on stop razing city option in the city menu. I was not only able to gain full control of the city, but did not suffer any unhappiness from annexing the city.
This works as long as you:
1) Raze then stop razing
2) Do not reload the game. the Reload will correct this mistake and you'll be hit with a crap load of unhappinesses
Enjoy
