[Bug] 3.1.0.1216 Searching for missing tracks on network

Steps to reproduce:
* Have some files which are dead links in the library, and have a network share setup on the localhost with some files in it, with a space in one of the directories
* Select, go to file -> search for missing / moved files
* type in the network path including a space (eg: "//louis/Music/My Music/")

Upon pressing (but not releasing) OK, the above string is changed to "\\louis\Music\My\, Music\" (note the added backslash and comma) and the search fails.

I would assume this is just a string escaping problem, quite easy to fix.
XP SP3 32bit, C2D 3Ghz, 4GB RAM.


edit:
Apparently this is intended? Putting double quotes around the string fixes the problem, but this is prehaps a little counterintuitive if you're just typing in a path, and commas should not be added?

Thank you, added as http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=5228

Workaround should be to use quotes.
i.e. enter "//louis/Music/My Music/" instad of //louis/Music/My Music/
