Master Control Panel doesn't interprete BLE address correctly.

Hi,

I work with Master Control Panel 3.6.0.8331 on x64 Windows 7 and I noticed something weird. When device name of a connectable peripheral device consists of numbers for example "112233445566" then I'm not able to connect to the device because MCP tries to use this name as bluetooth address. When I set a different name for example "cat", "dog" or just put a letter at the beginning "z12233445566" all seems to work. Is this some kind of hidden feature or just a bug in the packet parser? Please see picture attached which shows data inconsistency.
