4.7 Beta 2 Playlist Import Issues

I've posted this once before, but I think it got buried and forgotten. I was using 4.6 and then upgraded to 4.7 beta 2. I love that the playlists are now more easily accessible; however, the importing of the old playlists is broken beyond all reason for me. A number of my playlists were fairly large (~1300+ tracks), but they won't import 90% of the time, and when they do, they only show up with the last 25-ish tracks added to the list. I've been banging my head on this for a few days now.\
Anyone else having playlist import issues?

Ok, I think I figured out the problem, and it's something that is probably buggy in the 4.7 beta 2 release. If a listing in the playlist file has capitalization in the directory structure (e.g.: D:\Music\), it dies. Once I did a universal find and replace to make it all lower-case... viola! It worked. That should probably be looked at for the full release - case sensitivity is a pain.

Well done for spotting that - I couldn't get any of my playlists to import - now I know why
However I can see this could be a big issue for Linux users
