Missing Fade files become missing audio files?

[Tim R.]

On occasion when I try and import session data from another PT's session I'll get an error that there are missing audio files. As it turns out they aren't audio files, they're Fade files that were missing from the source session. So my session ends up with a complete timeline (green light) but an incomplete session (red light) with NO missing regions in the region bin. If I go to the original session I get an error that there are missing FADE FILES. At this point I can regenerate missing fades, save THEN import the session and all is well. The destination session would run fine with the missing fades, BUT if I try and import data from THAT session I get an assertion error with some inane description.
