 * If you try to import a previously-exported post containing backslashes, those
   backslashes will be omitted during the import process.

 * I have fixed and patched this issue.
    Who and where should I usually ask for 
   someone to apply my patch to an official WordPress plugin? I couldn’t find anything
   named “wordpress-importer” in the [Trac’s component field](http://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/newticket).

 * You can create a ticket on the [core WordPress Trac](http://core.trac.wordpress.org)
   under the “Import” component.
