Restore Windows Library into Linux - of course it won't work (file paths) but...

Lots of people have done this successfully, so it's probably a bug specific to your OS.

I tested library restores with and without settings last night and had no issues.  I did notice that sometimes the "library import completed" dialog box pops under the loading dialog (giving the impression that the program is frozen), but once you foreground that dialog box and click ok the restore finishes just fine.  So this might just be a UI issue.

Yep, can confirm this one. There's a couple instances where important pop up dialogs are under the loading dialog - for example the authorization dialog where you input the username and password when setting up media network on another PC.
