Eclipse IDE V28.0 issue - selecting single approval process in add/remove metadata

1. On 2013-08-02 I installed Eclipse IDE V28.0.0.201307091110 
2. Built new project that included Approval Processes; I selected a single approval process using add/remove metadata
3. Eclipse IDE constructed package.xml incorrectly for this Approval Process: 

Name: 'Approve: Quote' 
API name: 'Approve_Quote' 

Resulting package.xml built as follows: 

 

 

<Package xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata"> 
   <types> 
      <members>Approval_Request__c.Approve%3A Quote</members> 
      <name>ApprovalProcess</name> 
   </types> 
<version>28.0</version> 
</Package>

 

 

This is incorrect, Eclipse can't locate this approval process as the API name was not used 

The correct package.xml (after I edited it) is: 

<Package xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata"> 
   <types> 
     <members>Approval_Request__c.Approve_Quote</members> 
     <name>ApprovalProcess</name> 
   </types> 
<version>28.0</version> 
</Package>
