[support] pathauto & auto-generated menu path's - not working together...

Hello,

So, I have pathauto enabled, and I am going through the motions of 
setting up a really simple website where the account_admin can made new 
nodes, and assign them to the primary menu all on their own.

When they type in the box the menu title [say the name is: 'foobar'], 
and the checkbox for "create pathauto alias' is on, I get the following 
result:

-=-=-
Menu item:

Title: foobar
Path: node/8

Alias created:

Alias: content/foobar
Path: node/8

-=-=-

The alias works,  but the problem is, that the menu item should have in it:

Title: foobar
Path: content/foobar

and NOT

Path: node/8

As this completely defeats the point of making an alias... because the 
entire menu has in it numbers instead of alias's...

Is this just a bug [oversight] in path auto & the menu system?

Or do I need to turn "on" something that is not on by default to get it 
to work?

Thanks for your help!

Sebastian.
