Hi,
I just upgraded from 0.7.59 to 0.8.0 and I've noticed that in the Edit metadata dialog, all the authors' names in the dropdown list are mangled.

For example, instead of

Code:

Dumas, Alexandre

it shows

Code:

D & u & m & a & s & , & A & l & e & x & a & n & d & r & e

The existing books themselves still have the correct author names listed, but obviously I can't edit the author field, or add any new books.

Reinstalling 0.7.59 restores the correct behaviour.

Has anyone else experienced this issue?
