Between issues like this bug and the fact that I'd have to re-install 
all my plug-ins/filters, upgrading form 6 to 7 is something I wouldn't 
even approach until the bugs are worked out..  Having worked in the IT 
field for many years, people get fired for choosing to make the upgrade 
transition to a version with bugs that impede production work in ways 
the earlier version did not..  "New and improved" is NOT always better.

As a rule of thumb, I think it's advisable to virtually NEVER upgrade to 
a new whole number version of ANY critical software until the first 
major patch or service pack comes out.. (unless one of the new features 
is something one cannot live without)  Given the complexity of modern 
software and the incrementalism of upgrades problems are bound to creep in..

I hope the problem gets isolated though, we don't want to simply have 
multiple workflows floating around for various version of PS because 
Adobe messed up..  If you gentlemen and ladies isolate it, I would hope 
Adobe comes up with a quick patch.  Please, make sure you send Adobe 
feedback on whatever you find, it will help out the rest of the community..
