Whither Media Library?

I may be the only one that uses this feature (judging by how many others have posted similar problems) but VLC 1.1.2 crashes any time I make an attempt to add a folder to the Media Library. I'm using Win 7 64. I opted to send a crash report, which was offered directly after the crashes...in fact I sent a few of them. :( Before that, 1.1.1 often would mix up all the Media Library files together, even though "display playlist tree" was selected in preferences.

So, is Media Library a feature that's being dropped and you forgot to update the UI elements or something?

Unrelated to that, why would a "font cache" be important to a video player? I might understand if you guys made a Word clone and you had to label the cache something. But a video player? Font cache? Like a nun, I don't get it. I'm sure there's a good reason to have to build this cache each time you wish to play a video but is it really for fonts?

Folder crash should be fixed in VLC 1.1.3

Font cache is required because some MKV files have very font heavy A SS subtitle files.
