[ and ] bad in filenames, using CLI

... playlist add Phil%20Keaggy\Find%20Me%20in%20These%20Fields\04-[guitar].flac loses. A subsequent status command doesn't show the file, but near the end of the current song, playback abruptly halts, so apparently it tried to do something. It's possible to add this file normally, using the webpage interface, and the file itself opens fine in the usual players. Similar behaviour (I think - haven't verified) with directory names containing &. I get my filenames from online song databases, and weird characters like [ happen.
Doesn't seem to be a problem in 6.2.2. 6.2.2 is *nicer*.
