[SD-User] SD ADIF Export

Having used SD 14.07 the weekend for the IARU contest I noticed the adif export is incorrect.
I am trying to import my log from SD from and the ITU fields are not being populated correctly when the exchange was from a HQ station, it has been truncated i.e. RSGB becomes RS in the ITU Zone field.
The adif file looks like this

<Call:5>GB7HQ        <Mode:3>SSB  <Band:3>40M  <Freq:5>7.060 <RST_Sent:2>59  <RST_Rcvd:2>59  
<QSO_Date:8>20080712 <Time_On:4>1654 <ITUZ:4>RSGB   
<EOR>

ADIF defines ITUZ as a number, not a group of letters. SD's use of ITUZ to convey this information is incorrect, should it not be <SRX:4> instead of  <ITU:4> ie  <SRX:5>VERON  and the other should be <STX>

For the moment I did a find and replace on the ADIF file to change  <ITUZ:4> to <SRX:4> and the same for <ITUZ:5> etc

Any thoughts on this one?
