Request for SP1: allow linking of runtime folders which are named something other than "runtime."

My Poser 6 runtime is set up on a separate drive, in a directory named "P6 Runtime."  When I try to link to that runtime in Poser 8, it returns an error saying "That folder doesn't seem to be a runtime folder.  Choose a new runtime folder to add."  

When I change the directory name from "P6 Runtime" to just "Runtime" it allows the link.  The problem is that I have tons of texture references and other absolute links which depend on the directory being named "P6 Runtime."  Now when I load a figure or prop with an absolute reference it says it can't find the texture.

I can change the name to "Runtime" and then run CorrectReferencePro II to change all the references, but it doesn't seem like I should have to.
