By design or a bug?

So when I add a DVD/BD to my collection the program no longer does a default purchase date of the current date. That is annoying. If I move it from my wishlist to owned it does.

Speaking of wishlist. If I added a DVD to my collection that is in the wishlist the program used to move it automatically and tell me it was doing that. Now it I just get an error message and then i have to go to the wishlist, find the disc on the wishlist and move it that way.

I do have separate collections for DVD/BD/HD. Not sure if that is a factor.

I don't use custom collections so can't be 100% sure but I think at least the second problem may be that.
I've just done a quick test and trying to add an existing dvd into a custom collection does result in an error message. It seems to work on a form of heirarchy. The program will move DVDs from Wish List to Ordered and Ordered to Owned but not the other way round, and I'm guessing custom collections are at the bottom of the heirarchy.

I don't know for sure, but it could be it is design. Some asked for a different way to add the purchase date. (but the differences between direct adding and moving from wishlist addles me in this assumption.  )

Imho a Bug. Has been reported twice, but not much reaction, seems not many users are ynnoyed by this.

I need less things to worry about when adding stuff. The more defaults the better IMO.
