Saving playlist in subsonic 4.7

Hello, I have a question.
For the first time since the release of 4.7 I have tried to create a new playlist.
When I click "save as playlist" under the "more actions" drop down menu, I get a popup saying "Playlist saved."
But it's nowhere to be found!! And it doesn't even ask me to fill in a name for the playlist either :/
what am I doing wrong?

Actually... I just noticed I can't find the setting to define the playlist directory ANYWHERE... did I just install subsonic so long ago that I don't remember the configuration? Or was this setting removed in 4.7??

OK, I solved it myself.
Apparently, for some reason, playlists are either no longer saved physically on the disk, or in a location that I cannot find (but I assume it's in the database). I assume this is new functionality in 4.7 (by design) although I wasn't informed about this when updating, nor can I see anything about it in the changelog (or searching on the forum in general).
Second problem was that you have to press "Show all" in the playlist section before it shows the new playlists (at least in my case, I guess I was on the exact number of playlists allowed before that option shows at all.
Now that I know how all this works I do wonder why it's not possible to enter a playlist name during the save procedure, I think it's kind of elaborate to save a playlist first, then go and rename it after.
I do like the feature where you can now choose wether a playlist is public or not.

Thanks for the feedback. Although the change log doesn't mention anything about removing the physical directory and included playlists. Also searching in the forum didn't show me any relevant results on the first 3 pages while searching for "playlists 4.7"
