Descriptive Problem Summary:

The map editor fails to export any type paths that are not atoms, and fails to properly parse any modified types that are not atoms. Any datum paths in variables of atoms on the map are parsed incorrectly and turn up invalid.

The parsing and saving should be fixed for 512. I'll run some more tests, but I've been able to successfully retain values properly.

It appears to not so much be a parsing issue as solely an output issue. When converting modified pops to text form, the internal routines were not correctly handling datum refs.
